Thanks for asking. On Thursday she is getting her BRCA results and then she will know her path - bilateral if positive, radiation if negative. I believe she will be negative like me but if she is positive, I am going to get looked at again (test results can get mixed up).

I don't know if she will do the trial. We did talk about it at length and I will follow up with her since we will be talking at least on Thursday.
