My mother died a horrible death in 1984 of non-Hodgkins lymphoma at the age of 69 due to the poisoning of the water supply in Parkersburg, West Virginia with byproducts from the manufacture of Teflon. By the time I figured out what had happened it was way too late to do anything about it. I currently have a good friend who has just begun his second round of chemo for non-Hodgkins lymphoma due to exposure to Roundup. I don’t know if he has received any compensation. Roundup is still so widely used that we all carry body burdens of it without knowledge of possible long term effects. I worked for Monsanto from 1984 to 1994 and was told that Roundup quickly broke down into harmless products and was not toxic. Profits trump honesty and safety every time.
