If you use genealogy software on your pc, send a gedcom file with any missing parts. I have!

New Daily Mail Article

The Daily Mail has just published a new story about the Crolla family breast cancer gene. Read about it here. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/health/healthmain.html?in_article_id=468871&in_page_id=1774#StartComments

It seems to me that the NHS are astonishingly slow to catch on to all the research we are all doing into the family. My husband took them the entire family tree as we know it (on cd) when he went for his first visit to Nottingham City Hospital genetics department. This was six months or so ago. They only called him back in for a blood test again this week. They said they could not trace the records of his first cousin who died from breast cancer 23 years ago. What's going on?
