FAMILY: GENETIC LEGACY, PARENTING & (IN)FERILITY, Apr / May 2024, Vol 9, No 2, 130+ pages
They say when one person gets cancer, the whole family gets cancer. This issue is full of questions asked and answered, as best we know how. Conversations with children – born and unborn, conversations with mothers, brothers, grandmothers, sisters, conversations with our partners. This issue is all about the many ways our breast cancer diagnosis has affected the people closest to us, often within the four walls of our very homes.
