Its been rough

My dad had cancer they managed to operate and remove it however they ran a DNA test and it turns out that he's a carrier of a defective gene which can cause certain types of cancer. Anyway we all had to get checked the papers arrived today. its a thing called Lynch Syndrome MSH6 Gene Carrier. This is one of the genes which prevents certain types of cancer the person who has this mutation is more likely to develop bowel, colon and gastric cancers. The patient is a carrier this means they pass it onto their children. Well that sucks. An update I've about 2 more weeks to wait for my test results to come through.
