Hi...... My name is Deb & I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008. 11 years after my mother died from this disease. I underwent a double mastectomy, reconstruction, chemotherapy & herceptin. I found out in 2014 I'm BRCA2 positive & have passed this gene on to my 21 year old daughter. I would like to be able to help women living with the gene connect to the resources available to them from the BCNA. These women need support too, often undergoing double mastectomies & oopherectomies without having had cancer.
