Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the genetic link is stronger if your family history has incidents of premenopausal BC, rather than post. That's why I decided it was best to start young.
Uforgot---I'm so sorry about your mom. (((((()))))))
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
