This is the disease risk part of my genetic profile in 23andMe. I hesitated a great deal before posting it. It is normally a very private matter. In a way by posting this I am more naked than if I was posting a naked picture of myself. But then I thought, my objective in posting [...]

Aphrodite spends summers in the Mediterranean and winters in the Caribbean, so she has many Atlantic crossings [...]
