Julie:

If I hadn’t been diagnosed with breast cancer previously, I probably would have brushed it aside a little longer, but knowing that it was a great potential with carrying the genetic factor, you’re always scared. You can't get past that, but I think a sense of urgency because they had already asked me to remove my ovaries in my case.
