Yes, I think so, and rapidly. My dear Brother-in-law was sent to hospital, in apparent good health (he smoked all his life) but with
a horrid headache, was diagnosed with brain and lung cancer. He died less than 3 months later.

And one day, while in about year 28 of volunteering at our local hospital, they had free screening for hospital personnel. We were considered non-salaried personnel so a nice nurse insisted that I go with her for a mammo. Next day got a call from my doctor..now every morning I thank God for being here, then stick my Bosom Buddy in my bra and I'm good to go for the rest of the day.
