Thanks for that information Todd. As one who has had 3 surgeries for cancer, as well as chemo and radiation, I have built a respect for anything that might be dangerous.
As a young man in my teen years I worked in a nursery where we frequently sprayed plants with DDT, Malathion, and other highly carcinogenic products. I spent 45 years building houses, often working with treated wood, paints and stains, even asbestos based siding and insulation products, which now are well known as carcinogenics. Years of cleaning greasy parts with bare hands in a bucket of solvent or gasoline surely was not wise. I even worry about the fumes when filling my vehicles with gasoline or diesel.
The most recent use of Cuprinol was prior to 2013, the year my colon cancer was first discovered and treatment began.
I certainly can't help but wonder if any or all of my exposure to these products in some way could have contributed.
Thanks again for sharing that information.
Jerry
