Those cancers are all related to having the BRCA genetic Defect. Have you had your hereditary genetics checked? The reason you want to do this is, if your children also have it they are warned about possible cancers.

If you live in the USA, you can get your Hereditary, genetic test for free from the below link. Don’t say that you want your doctor involved or they won’t send you the kit until they speak to your doctor. A geneticist will contact you about the results.

Thank you for the thought. I actually did have genetic tests and found no issues as I was concerned for my sons and daughter. All good in that direction.
