message: Anyone else find it odd that the only cases of cancer - other than Jackie's non-Hodgkin's lymphoma - in the Kennedy family are all in this small cluster? 1st Ted Jr's bone cancer. Then his mother Joan's breast cancer. Then his father Ted's brain cancer. Then his sister Kara's breast cancer. Why has cancer galloped thru this one small branch of the family? I'm not mentioning this just to be a gape-mouthed idiot in wonder. I AM wondering if someone might know, or can determine, the statistics on an entire immediate family (with the exception so far on this case of youngest child Patrick) ALL coming down with cancer. I mean, clearly there's a predisposition to heart disease in the family at large, as well as one for addiction (both drugs & alcohol), but cancer seems to run rampant in Ted's & Joan's genes & nowhere else. Just wondering what the odds might be for this to occur. ScarletRibbons (talk) 06:15, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Assuming you are correct, that cancer is over represented in "one small branch of the family", then the answer is oncogenes. They are now quite well known. Nick Beeson (talk) 16:22, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

message: I do not know what the original tagging editor was thinking, when they said, "not easy to verify Gershman's date of birth" because, eleven years after being tagged, I went to the reference, a New York Times article (the very definition of a "reliable source") and found her age clearly stated, i.e. the article said, "Dr. Kennedy, 34,...where she...". Perhaps the tagging editor was confused by the NYT naming the bride as "Kennedy", but it is absolutely clear that "she" is the bride. If she was 34 in October 1993, the date of the article, then there is a 75% chance she was born in 1959. Nick Beeson (talk) 16:19, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
