Oh Leonie - I am so happy for you! That is wonderful news. I am sure that your children are also breathing a sigh of relief too.
I'll get the testing done because of my age (my mum has had BC too but post menopausal) - they do not feel I carry the the gene but I think I would like to know for my daughters and son.
I love meditation. I try to practise daily but have found fatigue a bit of a problem in the past couple of weeks. I enjoy meditating with others - I find it very powerful and healing.
I wish we knew and understood the causes of BC but maybe they can find a cure without understanding why. I believe that lifestyle factors and genetic factors (some unknown as yet) play a role. My mum is part of a cluster of about 20 women from the same workplace who got BC - they still don't know why but believe that there had to be some environmental cause as the likelihood of this occurring by chance was less than one in a million.
I hope that you have a wonderful stress-free weekend!
Much love and light to you,
Amanda x
