365 Day 69 Genetic Testing

I will probably delete this explanation later.

 

I had genetic testing today to see if I have a genetic mutation that might explain why I developed breast cancer at such a young age. Between you and me and the lamp post, I don't think I have the mutation but I wanted to rule it out because if it turns out I have it, I will probably have my ovaries removed.

 

Nobody else in my family has had this test because they don't trust the insurance companies. But in my case the "cat is already out of the bag" for me because I am sure I would never get insurance anyway because of my "history".

 

btw this photo was a bitch to take in my dark apartment and no flash. One handed shooting here with a mono-pod and a 1.8 .
