    47 - clear mammogram (with clip highlighting stupid area!) 6 months prior, family history but negative for BCRA1 and 2, extremely dense breast tissue which I have since learned gives me a risk increase equal to family history

    37 - no real family history, none of the "risk factors." I feel too young to feel this old.
