Phyllis - the military is now recognizing the effects of Agent Orange and providing
assistance for those who suffer with the effects. I don't know their policy on
survivors but worth looking into and/or working for. A friend of mine receives $2000 a
month plus all his medical care because of his health issues. Susan ~ Oregon

Phyllis,
Your story is very heart touching and so sad.
Many men are touched directly by war. Many others are touched indirectly
with much longer impacts to them, their families and to society.
We need to make sure their story is told through the Genealogy and Family
Histories WE are writing.
LET US MAKE SURE THAT THE FUTURE REMEMBERS!
That is one reason we all strive for ... That our Ancestors & Loved Ones
will not be forgotten to our posterity.

Talking about agent Orange. My Mother was a Carpenter (Johnnie D.
Carpenter). My brother Carroll F Collins, Jr died because of agent orange
at the age
of 32. He had cancer in the brain, bones, lungs, stomach. He had only
one
son who has some similar knots my brother had which is what started the
search for the origin. His son has two small sons. My brother was my
Dad's only
son. My Dad's father died when he was only 4, my brother died when his
only
son was 4.
