A loving mother of six has reportedly passed away after her battle with cancer that arose from using excessive Johnson and Johnson talc powder.
According to reports from local media outlets, Theresa Garcia was shocked to learn that her coughing fits were a rare form of cancer that usually affects miners and those involved in the world of construction.
The 53-year-old who is based in Chicago, Illinois explained how she never spent that much time in the outdoors. She was an in-office worker and discontinued her job soon after she had kids as she needed to take care of them.
The mother of six realized what the leading cause of her condition could be when she saw a shocking and harrowing report about talc powder produced by the brand Johnson and Johnson.
She explained how she was a longtime user of the powder. She started in her childhood and that went up to her adult phase too. Little did she know that the substances used to produce it were indeed carcinogenic.
After visiting the doctor, she was informed about the cancer growing on the inner lining of her lungs and since then, her condition started to worsen with time. Now, her family is mourning her loss as they demand justice with a lawsuit.
