"I don’t have cancer, but here I am. This is my life. This is my reality. I am BRCA positive."

At the 36th Annual Miami Breast Cancer Conference, Shannon Pulaski, founder of Proactive Genes, sat down with CURE® to discuss how parents can relate important health information, such as genetic mutations, to children of all ages.

For one woman with a BRCA gene mutation, information and teamwork brings a sense of control.

A cancer diagnosis can lead to discussions about family health history, as well as a whole new world to learn about.

Families with certain genetic mutations face many complex and personal choices, including how and when to share such information with their children. Mom's Genes is here to help.

Some moments in life get seared into your brain. Years later you can picture exactly what you were wearing. You can conjure up the smell of the room.
