Write a letter to Judy Smith from the perspective of her doctor. In the letter, explain your findings from her genetic test and what the results mean. Explain to Judy what preventive measures she can take to reduce her risk for developing breast cancer and what options she has. Use your notes from your laboratory notebook to compose your letter.

Your recent visit was very informative as I learned that you are at an increased risk of developing breast cancer. You should begin to see your doctor annually so they may perform a mammogram on you. This will allow them to detect any lumps or abnormalities in time before it becomes serious. If there is anything wrong, your doctor can refer you to a surgeon who specializes in breast cancer treatment. It's important that you don't ignore these symptoms because if left untreated, it could be fatal.

To prevent breast cancer, you need to make sure to remain physically active, maintain a healthy body weight, eat a well-balanced diet, avoid smoking, limit alcohol consumption, get enough sleep, and lower stress levels. It's also important to have routine checkups with your doctor to ensure nothing is out of place. These simple steps will greatly help decrease your chances of being diagnosed with breast cancer.

Sincerely,

(Doctor name)
