04 MarMommy, can boys get breast cancer?

Out of the blue this AM Gavin comes up with that zinger. And in keeping with my policy of telling him the truth I said “yes they can get it too”. I then asked him if he was worried about it and he said he was. I told him that I went through testing and that he did not have the gene that causes cancer. He got the gene for blonde hair, blue eyes, ticklish feet, and asking lots of questions but NOT the gene for cancer.

I asked him if that made sense and he told me I was blocking his view of the TV. Guess that means we’re good right?
