"In a New York Times op-ed, Angelina Jolie wrote about her decision to have a double mastectomy after finding out she had the BRCA1 gene: ""Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much I could. I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy. I started with the breasts, as my risk of breast cancer is higher than my risk of ovarian cancer, and the surgery is more complex."""
