Good idea Jeannie. My husband is the CML patient. He also was a smoker for
many years but had quit about 20 years before diagnosis. We owned a petroleum
delivery company. And in that capacity he would ingest the benzene fumes all
day…..for 33 years. This is what we think caused his CML.
Very interesting reading these emails.
