We have a "f...Is it bad that I kind of get it?<br />We have a "family history" of congenital heart defect (HLHS). As that person is not genetically related to me I am aware that my unborn is not at any higher risk than any other fetus without a family history of HLHS but I may still be more concerned than other parents (who most likely never heard of it).<br />One of my coworkers has an (ex)husband with early onset alzheimer's. While rationally she understands that she doesn't have a higher risk than other people (especially as she doesn't have a family history of alzheimer's), she is still more concerned than most people around her because she has lived through it with a husband who had barely turned 50.<br /><br />Somebody being concerned about something should be set at ease. Not ridiculed. That's why people stop seeing their physician. They don't feel taken seriously.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-83191754172338537082017-04-18T16:52:14.757-04:002017-04-18T16:52:14.757-04:00Well...if they're from West VirginiaWell...if they're from West VirginiaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07415606739647112727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-46531869478376966932017-04-10T17:17:22.345-04:002017-04-10T17:17:22.345-04:00How long ago did they divorce?
My dad, a wonderfu...How long ago did they divorce?<br /><br />My dad, a wonderful, long-suffering soul, 'caught' it from my mom. Being a full-time caregiver does increase your risk. And I KNOW I went home a little more demented after spending long hours with her. It takes a special kind of strength to deal with that day in, day out. I guess I could do it if I had to, I just pray I don't! tbunnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359529844245201544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-45021874899083475482017-04-10T01:27:57.565-04:002017-04-10T01:27:57.565-04:00"I knew something was wrong when suddenly, on..."I knew something was wrong when suddenly, one year, he remembered our anniversary."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-85965910538825812972017-04-10T01:26:47.470-04:002017-04-10T01:26:47.470-04:00"I'm also worried about thallium poisonin..."I'm also worried about thallium poisoning, for the same reason."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-51707413162040243452017-04-10T01:24:21.046-04:002017-04-10T01:24:21.046-04:00"Who happens to be the Family consigliere.&qu..."Who happens to be the Family consigliere."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-58868910770498611562017-04-09T18:55:41.684-04:002017-04-09T18:55:41.684-04:00"Heredity is really complicated.
