Hi Girls,
Just a quick note to let you all know that I was tested for the BRCA 1-2 breast cancer gene mutation and it came back negitive. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
NO MUTATION DETECTED. This helps me, because I know that breast cancer is assoicated with firefighting and its environments.
Be healthy and be safe,
Robin

Its a negative for the breast cancer gene mutation, and it is great.
When you had or have cancer, they do what they call tumor marker tests and these have numbers , say from 0-48. as long as you stay within this range your safe, but the higher the number goes, this means that something maybe going on and that you would need additional tests. My last tumor marker tests were good.
Thanks for keeping me in your prayers and I will do the same for you Ms. Blackwidow. Be healthy, Be safe.
Robin
