I'm a new member. My husband served in Vietnam in 1967-68. I have been doing some research regarding illnesses related to service in Vietnam. My husband developed Type II diabetes, had pre-cancerous throat polyps (removed twice) and died from Glioblastoma Multiforme. Earlier research indicated no connection to service in Vietnam or Agent Orange with regard to the Glioblastoma. However, recently, I have heard that there may be a connection. I know that "life happens" and not all things can be related to his service in Vietnam. Perhaps this is just a grieving widow's attempt to make some sense of all this. Thanks for listening and for the forums. jg

Hi zenobia
Welcome her. There are some exelent and well informed popeople here. Try addressing your queries to Vike ad TinCanMan they are real Phd's when it comes to the VA. If they don't know the answer they know where to get it. Again, welcome. May your good husband be with theLord and God Bles all those left behind.
