ATM gene mutation & recurrent pregnancy loss (not looking for advice, just seeing if anyone else has a similar situation)

CW: Miscarriage

My partner (28m) and I (29f) have been trying to have a baby for three years. I've been pregnant 6 times now, currently pregnant with the 6th) and have never made it past 7.5weeks. After years of testing from both me and my partner, all of the specialists I've seen have no answers as to why I keep having early losses.

In 2020 I found out I have the ATM gene mutation which is linked to breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancer. My dad was diagnosed that year with prostate cancer and the ATM mutation, which led me to get tested as well.

Every doctor and OBGYN I've spoken with has no idea what the gene mutation is and assumes it has nothing to do with my miscarriages, and the genetics team I met with said there isn't enough research currently to know if the two are connected.

I'm convinced my ovaries have been affected by the ATM mutation in some way and that it must be why I can't stay pregnant.

I'm just trying to do my own research now and see if anyone else has had this unique combination of health concerns?

TL;DR Anyone out there also have the ATM gene mutation and recurrent pregnancy loss??

My partner and I run our family farm in Massachusetts and have begun hosting community events a few times a year (started hosting in 2023). We always have local bands and performers play live music during these events, but only recently found out it's illegal without proper licensing for "copyright protection". I know, we should have realized sooner.

We don't want to get in trouble and are fine with paying for licensing every year for our events, but we truly have no idea where to even begin with the process. Our events bring in roughly 600-2000 people, depending on the weather, and the music choices vary widely with each performer.

Can someone please point me in the right direction of where and how to get the proper licenses? And what even are the proper licenses?? We just want to enjoy live music with our community lol
