I'm what you call a Previvor - I have the BRCA2 mutation and will be undergoing a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy on May 28, 2010.
I've lost my grandmother (54), my aunt (44) and my cousin (35) to Breast Cancer. I don't want to lose any more, much less myself.
At 34, I'm taking the necessary steps to make sure I will always be there for my son.
Stay strong and know you are not alone in your battle. As I tell everyone that hears my story....I just keep making lemonade.
