Great Twin Aunts
Both had breast cancer at the same time in their 80s. Lived for many years after-they didn't die from it. No Drs ever thought it was a risk for me because of their age when diagnosed. Their brother, my grandfather died from colon cancer in his 50s? My little brother died of a brain tumor at age 19-4 days after diagnosis.

I'm the first
Only one person in both sides of family...my maternal grandfather esophagus cancer, but passed from something else..
