In 2017, two weeks after turning 30, I learned I carry the BRCA1 gene mutation. One month later, I chose a preventive double mastectomy after being told my lifetime breast cancer risk was over 90%. My doctors also strongly recommended a total hysterectomy due to the increased risk of ovarian cancer. 💗🎀 My beautiful mother is a breast cancer survivor, and my aunt is an ovarian cancer survivor. 🩵🎗️If you or someone you love is facing BRCA1, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, or preventive surgery, please reach out.
