in the last 3 years my family has had to tolerate the following. My mom has had thyroid cancer, my sister has had ovarian cancer, my wife has had breast cancer twice, my father in law has bowel cancer and now I have been told I have cancer of the esophogus... is there something someone is not telling me? are we just greedy? why us? It ssems that no matter how healthy we live our lives it keeps coming back and attacking another member of our family. Is this a joke??

They believed in christmas and all that it stands for in both the religious and Father christmas way. Many happy...
