Anyone have experience with genetic testing?

I was dx with BC, there was no history of BC in our family. At 60 my dad was dx with early colon cancer; in my early 30s I was found to have borderline ovarian cancer. With that history genetic testing was performed it was determined I had TNBC and was BRCA2+. As a result my adult children were able to have genetic testing and I passed the BRCA2+ genetic to my son but not my daughter. He will need to start health testing and monitoring earlier than most males - which will help to catch anything early.
