One of my ants and here family were touring europe a couple of years after the incident.... My cousin who was born healthy and was about three at the time..... had developed Leukemia (blood cancer) 6 months after the vacation...... The doctors did not understand where he got it from...... he did not show any signs at birth and it was not genetically traceable..... But the minute they heard about the trip..... it all made sense.... I guess radiation clouds were still out there..... doing their damage..... My cousin is 17 now and been in and out of hospitals for as long as I could remember..... He’s condition lately has gotten worse and...... well...... the only thing I could do is pray.. :silent:
