Strong Sisters

Two of my sisters have fought and won the battle against breast cancer, both in their early 30s. They are negative for the BRCA genes, but we know there must be another defective one that they have and I or my 3rd sister might carry. My 11 yr old daughter is creating an exhibition project to share with her school to raise awareness and money for research. We're hoping the money will help fund the ability to detect other breast cancer genes that are not easy to test for now. This may save her own life and her cousins'. My daughter is inspired and motivated by her aunts, which makes me so proud of her and them.
