What Do You Think of Angelina Jolie's Choice?

Kathleen

I had a dear friend die of breast and other cancers four years ago.  This awful disease snuffed out the life of a vibrant, beautiful, strong woman that I miss very much.  She never candy-coated anything and was one of the most loyal friends I've ever had.

After the doctors could no longer make any progress with chemotherapy, experimental drugs, and the like, THEN they suggested that she try eating organic foods and getting exercise.

I hate cancer and what it does to people. 

So with that said, recently Angeline Jolie has been in the news for choosing to have a double mastectomy as she has a defective gene that could cause cancer.

My concern with her public announcement is how this may influence others to make potentially unnecessary, painful, and expensive choices that they may have not made without her celebrity.
