I had the genetic testing done. What I was told was they ideally like to test the person with the cancer. Then when they test other family members(parents, siblings, children...) they test off the original results(I believe this helps them know the genes location), which makes the test less expensive for everyone else. My insurance paid for my test. I was negative, if I had been positive my children would have had a 50% chance of inheriting the gene from me.
Hope this helps,
Kim
