Hi there, welcome to the forum, but sorry to hear about the members of your family having this condition. I don't know anything about it, but thought I would send you a brief message to let you know that we do read the posts. Sometimes if we know little or nothing about it, we don't always respond which I sometimes wonder if we should at least acknowledge the post. In any case, me responding to your post will bring it back up to the front page where hopefully, someone who knows something about it will answer your post. I would also suggest you post a question in the section, "Ask the Nurses" as they may be able to shed some light on this for you. Or, you can phone the nurses during regular business hours at the number displayed at the borrom of this screen.

Take care.

Hi, I do not have a family with your family cancer, but I do think that some family cancers risk are higher than others, and of course we know some are hereditory. My Mother, her sister and 2 brother and her mother all had cancer and died from it. Both my children have been diagnosed having cancer this year,(hopefully all will go well for them, fingers cross ) so we must be a high risk family, which would be interserting to look into. I do know that the hospital has taken a family history of cancer in the family, so that my grandchildren will be watch over in the years to come hopefully.

Hope you find out about your family if it genetically or hereditory.
