Well, I thought I was done writing.....

Well, I thought that I was done with my story, but the story of ones life never really stops until the very end, right???

I had a genetic test done and it came back positive. It says that I am a carrier of the gene that causes cancer....It dramatically increases my chances of getting cancer in my left breast or my ovaries... I believe that I am going to have a left mastectomy to eliminate the chance of it coming back. I just don't want to have to go through all of the chemo treatments again. I really don't think that I would, well  I don't know....I don't want to have to worry of it tho...so, I don't quite know when this will all come into fruitation but will keep you updated. I have to go back to the oncologist in two months and have blood test to see if I am in menopause. Depending on the results of that, they will decide if my ovaries need removed as well. I am really tired of all the operations that I have gone through, but grateful in the same breath because if I hadn't had any of them, then I would not be here for my kids.. So, I will keep you posted on my future surgeries or no surgeries
