Everything causes cancer at some point because there is no actual one thing that does or does not cause cancer. At one point they thought Orange Juice caused cancer. Do I believe memory foam causes cancer? Not unless she ate the pillows, which is unlikely. It was not injested or absorbed into the body. they are still selling the memory foam on a high level and me, being in the medical field, have never heard such a thing.

Uh, no, they probably don't cause cancer with normal use. All bets are off if you eat them or place them inside of your body for long periods of time.
Even if a study somewhere says that they do cause cancer, wait another 2 years and there will be a corresponding study disproving the first.

It seems unlikely, unless she was melting them or setting them on fire and then huffing the resulting toxic fumes.
