I sit down with a reluctant guest, Diane Hardesty finally, Lynch Syndrome patient, speaker and a self-proclaimed Valley Girl.  Before Diane's genetic testing results, 10 people in her family had passed away from cancer.  Diane's son did not inherit her mutation so it ends with her.  Diane is still a previvor, as she has not had cancer, but not for a lack of looking.  Diane's sister has had cancer 18 times and she is still with us.  How can she NOT do this? - is Diane's mantra when asked how she can talk about Lynch Syndrome when so many have been affected.
