What fate?: Your mother developed paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration due to breast cancer. Not sure which "fate" you mean. Paraneoplastic syndromes are rare. You can't have a paraneoplastic syndrome without the neoplasm. So your concern should be about getting breast cancer. Your discussion should be with your mother's oncologist about your genetic predisposition to breast cancer if you haven't done so.
