My grandfather also has esophageal cancer, and my grandmother died of a stroke. My mother has had cancer twice, but neither due to genetic predispositions. 
My sister and I have both experience depression/anxiety starting at our teen years. ]]> 2017-02-13 06:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153348249 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349167  ]]> 2017-02-13 06:37:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349167 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349622 I am at an average risk for Melanoma,  and to help prevent this I can make sure I take care of my skin and protect myself with clothing or sunscreen when outside in the sun. There is no screening procedure for Melanoma unfortunately.]]> 2017-02-13 06:43:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349622 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349681 2017-02-13 06:44:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349681 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349714 I am very below average risk level for having a stroke due to my lifestyle choices. To keep this risk low I need to continue to eat healthy and exercise regularly, as well as not consume large amounts of alcohol. This result surprised me a bit because my grandmother died of a stroke, but they only asked about immediately family members.]]> 2017-02-13 06:44:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153349714 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350047 2017-02-13 06:48:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350047 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350078 I am much below the average risk for developing osteoporosis. If I want to remain at a low risk for this disease, I should continue a healthy lifestyle and consider taking a calcium supplement; I am lactose intolerant so I do not eat dairy as well. ]]> 2017-02-13 06:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350078 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350346 2017-02-13 06:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350346 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350391 I am very below the average risk for developing heart disease. If I want to continue to be at a low risk, I need to keep a healthy diet and avoid lots of fatty foods, exercise regularly, and consider adding more fish or B-vitamins to my diet.]]> 2017-02-13 06:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350391 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350484 My protective factors include the fact that I have a reasonably healthy diet, exercise often, and do not drink a lot of alcohol or smoke cigarettes. I was surprised at how many of the risk assessment factors included diet and certain foods, and that is motivating me to look more into my diet and make sure I am including things such as fish, and certain vitamins (calcium, vitamin B).

Risk factors I have include the fact that I used to use tanning beds when I was younger, and that has a high correlation with skin cancer. ]]> 2017-02-13 06:57:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153350705 sierrawindsor15 https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153352762 2017-02-13 07:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawindsor15/vm43is4tbnh8/wish/153352762
