Hi,

I have a genetic mutation that can cause breast and ovarian cancer. I'm also a journalist and am writing an article on my choice to do IVF and PGD (pre-implantation genetic diagnosis) to weed the mutation from my family line. I will be telling my own story, but I am looking for others to share their stories too.

If you:

1) Have a genetic mutation that causes cancer
2) Will be starting IVF for PGD soon or have recently done it
3) Live anywhere near New York City (NY, NJ, CT, PA, DC, etc.)

Please e-mail me ASAP. I can be reached at dk135@columbia.edu

-If you're in the same boat and just want to talk (off the record) to someone going through it, e-mail me too - there are so few of us...
