Keri explains if she has taken the BRCA-1 test because of her family history of breast cancer and colon cancer.

Keri:
I actually asked my gynecologist a few years back if I needed to do that, and she said, "No, if you really wanted to do you can." The only preventative measure that they spoke with me about to do is obviously my self-, my breast self-exams once a month and to start getting mammograms early on, and they had suggested at age 35 rather than, I think it’s 40.
