Question Genetic Testing????

I know this has been discussed in the past, the question of genetic testing. I was wondering if there were any of you who have genetic testing recently.??? There seems to be a significant family history of cancer.
1. father died of melanoma age 48
2. aunt on father's side died of bc mid fifties
3. father-in-law died of lymphoma 65
4. mother-in-law dx with bc (stage 1) 81
5. two of mother-in-law's sisters died of bc--late 50's, early 60's
6. my husband diagnosed with prostate cancer (very early stage)
7. I was dx with bc at 46 (stage 2)
8. husband's sister dx with bc 53 (just diagnosed--don't know the stage yet)
9. husband's brother dx with kidney cancer (early stage)

My concern is for my two children--son 22yrs. and daughter 18yrs.
