It's Not Genetic!
Several weeks ago I had a genetic test done to see if this is why I got breast cancer. If it was positive statically I would have a higher chance of the cancer reoccurring somewhere else or back in the breast! I'm pleased to say the test came out negative! What a blessing! I was so scared because I just had a slight feeling that my results were going to be positive. It is amazing how far research has come. There are 2 genes they test for BRCA 1 and BRCA 2. Mutations in these genes cause in most cases hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. So it was a good day for me. Positive things do happen in times of trials and challenges!
