Description:  If you have hereditary cancer and are a parent, there may be a million questions swimming around in your head.  How do I share this information with my kids and when? When should my kids get genetic counseling?  Do other members of my family need to know?  Join us to dig deep into all things hereditary cancer, kids, and parenting. This webinar will discuss cancers identified as having a hereditary component, genetic counseling and testing, national guidelines for testing, when it’s appropriate to test children, how to share genetic information with family members and why that is important… and more! While this presentation is aimed at parents navigating a hereditary cancer, it will also be appropriate for previvors with children, as well as previvors and survivors diagnosed before becoming parents. There will be plenty of time for questions! SIGN UP
