I guess you have heard about Angelina Jolie undergoing a preventive double mastectomy. The 'Tomb Raider' star said that breast cancer genetic testing revealed to her an 87 percent chance of getting the disease, hence the brave decision to go through the drastic surgery.

I'm not sure I would be that "brave." I would still have a 13% chance of being perfectly fine for the rest of my life. I'm sure she made the best choice for her. I would rather eat healthy and keep a close watch on the situation.

I never even knew about this but I do completely understand it myself. From what I have seen here she is going for more work but I am not sure how much is too much? My mother never met any of my kids and I understand the word cancer all too well. My mother was 56 when she passed too (due to lung cancer, part of the reason I quit smoking).

A person should be in a certain position before he/she tries to judge about others. I would rather not have an opinion on this - this is too personal.
