While cancer has long been considered a disease of old age, a surge in cases among Gen Z and millennials is gradually turning that trend on its head.
Since 1990, cases of some types of cancers in young people have almost doubled in the US, even as rates have slowed or fallen in their parents and grandparents.
Sydney Towle, from California, was just 23 when she was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in early August 2023 after doctors discovered a ‘sizable mass’ in her stomach that had been growing for four months.
‘I’m typically an active person but suddenly I started feeling short of breath, and this strange burning sensation took hold in my tummy,’ she shared.
The young and ‘active’ Californian admitted that she had initially overlooked her symptoms and is now urging others via social media not to skip their regular health checkups.
Bile duct cancer, also known as cholangiocarcinoma, is an aggressive type of cancer that starts in the bile ducts.
It can affect people of different ages but it is more commonly diagnosed in adults over the age of 50.

‘It’s tough for me to plan for the future at all or expect anything when everything is so fragile around my diagnosis and treatment,’ she said.
‘It’s also really hard to plan in the short term, such as dinners or going out with friends, when I don’t know how I’ll feel physically or emotionally on a given day.
‘There are so many things I want to do now, given that I don’t know how much longer I have, but I can’t plan my bucket list or any fun trips while receiving treatment and not knowing where surgery will take me.’
Ms Towle, who recently fulfilled one of her dreams by moving to New York, is currently undergoing aggressive treatment targeting the tumor with a variety of treatments, including chemotherapy and experimental drugs.

This is a type of “soft disclosure” – telling women to expect cancer in their 20s and 30s, without telling them that the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines are causing this phenomenon.

Indeed, Trace. Especially when most of the CO2 pollution that needs to be reduced is beyond our control (ie caused by the military, industry decisions about processed heat, etc.).

I think it’s complicated, Steve, In part because most of the emissions we need to reduce are beyond our control, and in part because a large part are transport emissions low income people can’t reduce without policy changes on the part of government.
