More than 40 years after the end of the Vietnam war, one brave grandmother is suing the US chemical companies that produced Agent Orange, including Dow Chemical and Bayer-Monsanto.

Being a child of Vietnam Veteran, I believe I have Agent Orange symptoms that my doctors cannot diagnose. I am about to undertake genetic counseling funded by NZ to determine the extent of damage I’ve sustained. I’d very much like to reach out to other Agent Orange sufferers to discuss best course for treatments and diagnosis.
