This super exciting! My family has a history of back cancer and while the doctors all said it is not genetic, if your parent has the specific cancer then you are likely to develop it as well. I take this as they cannot find a specific gene that cause it but they have seen a pattern. Since I lost my dad to it, I’ve always had a fear in the back of my mind that I will likely get it one day. While I certainly wish we could’ve had something like this that’s able to fight it sooner so my dad could still be here, it’s nice to know that I may have a brighter future ahead of me.
