Many people who reach out after a cancer or serious illness diagnosis describe exposure patterns that look different from the “big farm” stereotype.
In Sandy-area cases, clients often mention:
- Home and HOA/contractor landscaping on properties where weeds and brush are treated multiple times a year
- Work around equipment and storage areas—sprayers, hoses, trailers, and shed spaces where residue can remain
- Secondhand exposure when family members or contractors brought herbicide residue home on clothing or gear
- Seasonal timing related to spring cleanup, summer weed control, or fall/early winter brush management
If you’ve been diagnosed and you suspect glyphosate could be involved, the most important thing is getting your medical records secured and building a clear exposure timeline.
