Although having an infection like Epstein Barr, or a family member that has the same lymphoma can increase the odds of your child contracting Burkett's; they're not the only ways that cause the body to have mutations that lead to it. The truth is they don't know why or what causes some people to have genetic cell mutations and yet others don't. There are hereditary, age, environmental & viral factors, but there are other things that aren't as well known that cause issues too. There's been a lot of cancers in my family, lung, stomach, breast,cervical, esophageal, etc. but no one has had Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma or any other type of lymphoma, except me. Go figure...You may never know why your son ended up with Burkett's. Prayers for it to be treatable...

Nobody in my family has cancer of any type,so far. I don't use Roundup but I have been in areas where is used, like apartments,schools,and my last neighbor.I mostly relate this to a mixed factors and the first one is the famous virus and vaccines.
