My Story
In 2009 I tested positive for the BRCA1 mutated Cancer Gene along with other family members (now famously known as Angelina Jolie Gene) which is passed down through generations. I have already had 1 out of 2 preventative surgeries available and attend yearly checks. Every inherited cancer Gene has a 50% chance of being passed onto their offspring with the 50/50 possibility of the inherited Gene being passed onto theirs and so on. I am hoping that other options may come into play for the future of others that are not as intrusive as surgery. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.
