My twin sister was recently diagnosed with cancer in the breast. A very mild form of cancer and something very treatable ; chances of recovery are 100%. But still...
I took an appointment this morning to get screened. Breasts are a very touchy subject in our family and with our history, there are no chances to be taken.
We are also transfusion-to-transfusion identical twins ; we shared the same umbilical cord, therefore have the same DNA. If one twin gets something, the other one will inevitably get it. How fun !!
Gleevec party anyone ?
