Cancer is in my genes – literally and figuratively

Cancer is in my genes – literally and figuratively. When I was in college both my paternal aunt and my paternal grandmother passed away – 3 years apart, both in February, they both had breast cancer, as well as other health complications.
My Diagnosis of breast cancer and testing positive for BRCA 1 with no family history.

Some mornings I wake up thinking or maybe its me pretending to be just a normal person, but then I put my fingers through my hair and it all flashes back like a bad nightmare. I remember that the reason I have little hair is because I recently had to fight for my life and the fight is something that I’ll always have to do.
