If the family have a strong history of breast cancer, doctors has to recommendated for blood test and other possible test for next generation in order avoid risk.

Mrs Suzan may had inherited a mutated copy of either gene from a parent, which lead to breast cancer.And age was Also a risk factor for her.

Preventive surgery

Women with a very high risk of breast cancer (strong family history) can choose to have their healthy breasts surgically removed (prophylactic mastectomy). They can also choose to have their healthy ovaries removed (prophylactic oophorectomy) in order to reduce the risk of both breast cancer as well as the ovarian cancer.
