hi again,
I had yet another question about cancer. My partner has a history of cancer in his family. I think I have heard that many cancers travel through families genetically. Is this true for colon cancer? Does it matter what kind of cancer you family member has or does any cancer increase your chances of getting cancer? thanx a lot.
