9. Lindsay King: Breast Cancer Stories

What’s it like to find out you have a very high risk of cancer?  This is Lindsay King’s honest account of what happened seven years ago when she found out she had the faulty BRCA 2 gene and the decisions she has made about her body since then.  Lindsay is married to Tom, has three children and runs her own business as a beautician. Here she speaks openly about the process leading up to her double mastectomy (including how she chose her new breasts) how she feels about it all and how she’s explained it to her kids.
