capnzebbieI'm having surgery on Monday, so wish me luck!
My sister died of ovarian cancer a few years ago, so my mom, my niece and I got tested for the BRCA gene that makes you more likely to have breast and ovarian cancer, and we all have it. I decided to have a hysterectomy/oophorectomy to avoid the ovarian cancer, and that will also make me less likely to have breast cancer.
This has been a weird year so far.
