The Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Foundation is having a fundraiser at the Flames of Hope..a Celebration of Life Waterfire in Providence RI October 11th. My karate studio, Mastery Martial Arts, will be hosting a board breaking event. The chief instructors will break 1,000 boards. It is so cool. People can buy a board for $10 and write a positive affirmation on it. Then after all the boards are broken, they will be placed on the fire and all the positive affirmations of love, faith, and healing will be sent off into the universe.
Please help me help this wonderful cause. Go to my fundraising website at

My grandma and mother both got diagnosed with breast cancer when they were 33, and my grandma only had it once, but my mother had it four times. i heard it was gentic, and i am wondering if maybe there is an oncologist that would know what my chances are. my grandma and mother both lived through all cancer(s). I am 12 right now.
oh crap, are you serious, will i most likely get it?
Tarkarri is right, and your other answerers have given you incomplete information.
If your mother’s breast cancer was due to one of the rare inherited faulty BRCA genes known to be responsible for hereditary breast cancer, then you have a 50% chance of having inherited that gene - and of course a 50% chance that you didn’t.
If you did inherit a faulty gene from your mother, that does not mean you will definitely get breast cancer, but that your chances are increased; it would mean you had between a 50% and 80% chance of developing it by age 70.
If your mother carries a faulty gene and you HAVEN’T inherited it, then your risk of breast cancer is no greater than anyone else’s.
Breast cancer is not usually hereditary - only 5 - 10% of cases are. Because your mother and grandma (I’m assuming it’s your mother’s mother) had breast cancer at a young age, it may well be that it was due to one of the inherited BRCA genes - they can be tested for this if they haven’t been alreaady. If so you will be offered testing when you are older to see if you carry that gene.
One of my friends carries one of the BRCA genes and both her adult daughters have been tested for it - one has inherited it, the other hasn’t.
Talk to your mother about this.
At your present age your risk of breast cancer is very close to zero whether your mother’s and grandmother’s cancers were hereditary or not

my mother has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I searched thee net for the survival stuff and it says something about a 5-year or 10-year survival rate. does this mean my mom is going to live for 5 or 10 years only? or does this apply for untreated cancer? will my mother live longer if she undergoes proper treatment? please help me i’m very confused and worried…btw, she’s 51 years old
First thing stop reading that stuff…it only puts worry and fear in you..trust me..when I had cancer the book I read said I had a 25% chance of living when I had bone cancer.. The real cure is motivation and a good outlook on life. I help thousands of cancer patient with my unique motivational news letter…
