my reason for asking. My dad was one of 3 bros that was WWII, He was infrontry so was in the jungles. he also had Malaria. Out of 11 cousins, Me, sister and brother are ill with fibro and rhuematod arth. We all had to go on disability at different ages.I know of all vets that are sick and dying from chemicals used in vn. Just wondering if maybe there is a connection..please let me know if u have info Tye
There is public database now acknowledging that agent orange has had effects on those exposed and their offspring. Believe there is a registry where you can share medical conditions, as more is learned about the impact..
I was wondering the same thing because my dad was in WWII, had malaria before I was conceived and I am the youngest of 4, none of my siblings have any health issues but I have tons, mostly auto immune and I was curious if that was related somehow.
My father was in Vietnam, dropped into swamps/fields and heavily exposed to Agent Orange the year before I was born and afterward. He currently is seeing 11 doctors. Losing his ability to walk (neurological), significant loss of gray matter in the brain, etc.
Not that I remember, but i will ask my older sister
thanku for answering. did ur dad have malaria????
