In an effort to make sense of my jacked genetic code and in hopes of hearing from other people who have dealt with similar situations, I decided to air all of my dirty laundry, at least in the arena of my health.  As I say to every writer with whom I work, take what’s useful, set the rest aside.  I hope, at the very least, in the telling of my attack plan on BRCA 1 & 2, I will be able to put this all in perspective.   And really, isn’t a little perspective good for us all?  Please don’t hesitate to contact me regarding any of these topics.  An open dialogue is the point of the exercise.
