My family has history with Kidney, Breast, Lung and Head/Neck Cancers (my mom and grandparents) my Ex's mother passed last year from Metastatic Melanoma Stage IV (DX because of pain in bones at shoulder area) kept giving her pain meds and pain meds and a second opinion gave Cancer DX. It was in her bones, lungs, one other place and then finally at the end her brain. She lived 4 mo after diagnosis. I worry about my daughters, her granddaughters. Not only do they have the cancer from my side but now their fathers (also their fathers grandmother had Colon Cancer, aunt had a Cancer I am unsure of and he had an uncle that died from Kidney Cancer in his early 40's or late 30's in 93) I worry about them and the skin cancer.....
