I grew up in a situation of constant abuse and have been treated for years with PTSD, and this is my second experience with cancer.  (First with Breast Cancer).  I also have Barret's disease, a pre-cancerous situation in my esophogus.  It makes me wonder if constant stress over many years can put the body in a situation where it is more suseptible for cellular changes.  Anyone have any ideas about that?]]></description></item></channel></rss>
