My father in law recently had seed radiation for prostate cancer and his doctor 
advised hime to avoid close contact with young children or pregnant women for 
several weeks.  Why?  What will happen to the young child or women?  He takes 
care of my 15 month old from 8am to 5pm Monday thru Friday, should I be worry?
