Q: Question? In the Family?

Hi,

i have a simple question. I have read reports of survivors and those currently with all types of cancer, but, for the most part, is lukemia and all cancers usually somthing that is intensly grouped in a family. Is it more rare to hear that someone has cancer, and yet not a single family member has gotten it? I know that is possible, but what is the most common standard, unexpected individuals or those that it tends to run rapid in the family? Let me know, thanks.
