I met a young man today

Rague

I went to the store to pick up some 'stuff' for the horses. As I was walking out one of the employees said he was going to help me out (I hadn't asked, only had 1 50lb bag and some light stuff). (My hair still is so short it screams "CHEMO") As he loaded my feed, we started talking and I found out that not only did/does his Mother and 2 sisters have DX for BC but his Father was DX 10 years ago and had a mastectomy. (Yes, I do believe that he was being honest.) All are NED now.

I'm not sure why I'm posting this now. Because I'm IBC there is no reason for my Sons or G-daughter to worry, but when 'The Monster' raises it's ugly head from both sides of the family?

Thoughts!

I hope I;ve made sense - IF I didn't ask and I'll try to make sense.

This young man will always be in my prayer rather I see him again or not.

Nice story!
Every once in a while, even now, Moopy and I both randomly run into people whose lives have been attacked by BC. Most recently, I was waited on at the Verizon store by a young guy with a pink wristband on... turns out his ex-girlfriend's Mom is being treated for BC and he's wearing it in her honor. He mentioned that he sometimes got a lot of crap about wearing pink, but once he explained why, people tended to shut up real fast.

yes you just never know. he has such a strong genetic link. I have heard it it is stronger with a male relative having it. dont know why. How hard is it to detect in men I wonder?
