Hereditary cancer is rare - fewer than 10% of all cancer cases are hereditary - and from what you have told us you are at no increased risk of cancer.

You don't inherit a general tendency to get cancer, and there is no 'cancer gene'; several family members having had different types of cancer is not hereditary.

A sign that a cancer MAY be hereditary within a family is when several members of the same side of that family have had the SAME type of cancer (eg all had breast cancer, or all had colon cancer), especially if some developed it at a younger than usual age.

And cancer that's diagnosed after the age of 50 is even less likely to be hereditary; all the family members you mention who have had cancer, except your dad, have apparently been elderly.

With at least one in three people getting cancer at some point in their lives, it's not unusual for several members of the same extended family to have non-hereditary cancers.

Often people think this means cancer 'runs in their family', but this is rarely the case.

In my own family, two of my grandparents died of cancer. Both my parents had cancer and my mother died of it. So did my aunt, my uncle and my cousin. None of their cancers were hereditary, and no members of my immediate or extended family have ever been considered at increased risk of any of the cancers they had.

Of my parents' 6 children, now aged from their late forties to early sixties, I am the only one who has developed cancer, and mine too is non-hereditary and unconnected to theirs.

good question...

i think if u eat a lot of vegetables and do exercise in fresh air (in morning) So there is only 10% chance of cancer, because pollution and junk food always make us sick, it is not really good thing for ur health. hope it help u

but NEVER FORGET EXERCISE
