Re: increased risk of breast cancer in daughters of older fathers

Duga,
I am so happy to hear that you were told about the increase in risk for your daughter. Sadly there are still medical practitioners that DO NOT make a point of sending MBC's to a Certified Genetics Counselor to better understand their risks and the risk for their offspring.
I too am sorry that you have this additional burden to worry about BUT am glad that your daughter will have this lifesaving information from the get-go,
Warmly,
Marcia
