She said, \u201cGrowing up in Australia, in my head, it was that when we\u2019re 50, we need to be checked. My grandma also died from breast cancer when she was 47, so that\u2019s where the mutation has come from on my dad\u2019s side. We grow up thinking that it\u2019s what\u2019s on our mum\u2019s side of the family that matters when it comes to breast cancer, but in actual fact, it\u2019s come via my dad.\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Photo: 9News<\/a><\/span>
