Both Spouses with CLL?

Are there any other couples in this group with both spouses diagnosed with CLL? I've had treated CLL for 7 years. There is lots of cancer in my family. My husband was diagnosed with CLL 4+ years ago and is not yet at treatment level. There isn't any cancer history in his immediate family. Almost makes it seem like there's something environmental causing it.

I met a couple in Texas, and she has CLL in W&W, and he was recently diagnosed with SLL. Certainly points to a possible environmental cause. or trigger.

Maybe just rotten luck, though, since there don't seem to be many of us in this same situation. Anyway, we have great doctors, are both feeling fine, and hopefully will stay that way for a good long while.
