Melissa Etheridge Quotes
I have that gene mutation too and it’s not something I would believe in for myself. I wouldn’t call it the brave choice.

My belief is that cancer comes from inside you and so much of it has to do with the environment of your body. It’s the stress that will turn that gene on or not.
