Of those with no family history of cancer, I wonder what percentage smokes and/or drinks and/or does illegal drug.

A dear family friend died at age 50. Cancer. She smoked.

Both of my grandmothers smoked. One died in her late 70s from lung cancer. The other died in her late 70s because of complications caused by her smoking.
