Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 Gloria, I was born on June 9, 1960 in Walla Walla, Washington, downwind of the Hanford nuclear plant. My mother has had hypothyroid-very low functioning since 1961. She lived in Walla Walla and worked there from 1955 to 1960. Hope this helps your survey. We are the only 2 members of our family(extended and otherwise) with thyroid disease. My 1 sister and brother were conceived and born outside the Hanford area. Debbi Birth Locations Hey Gang, I was diagnosed at age 48 in stage three of thyroid cancer. I think many of us are products of the cold war. Many of us are only now being diagnosed. I would like to make a log of where we all were born and what year to see if there is a correlation with releases of I-131. Thanks Gloria I was born in Benton County, in Kenniwick, Washington June 27, 1953. Gloria & Ranch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2003 Report Share Posted January 5, 2003 Have any of you had infant or childhood radiation? If you parents are living, ask them. It is something most parents don't think to tell and I did have nine thymus radiation treatments before four months of age.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2003 Report Share Posted January 6, 2003 Thank you for letting people know. I had the same radiation on thymus at a few months of age. When I was first diagnosed in 1969 the first thing the Shands asked, was if I had radiation treatment. It was the first group of people they had started to see and where trying to get a connection.
