Test Results- Negative!!!

[angel2write]

I got my tests back for the Huntington's disease genetic screening today.

I was totally convinced it was going to be positive, but it was NEGATIVE!!! All the things I've been doing were (in the words of the doctor) "just" PTSD and stress-related.

Which is so much better than finding out I have a brain-devouring disease. Yay!!!

I am having trouble believing it's real, but I have a sheet of paper that says it is. :D

So... I may drive my Bear crazy with the stupid PTSD-related stuff, but I won't slowly become aggressive, violent or delusional, loose the ability to walk, talk, write, or swallow food in the next ten years or so.

Thinking about him having to take care of me through all that was making me feel sick. I (as crazy as this sounds) would like to get better and have the chance to take care of HIM for a change!!!

Also... this means my kids don't have it. If I had it, each of my kids would have a 50% chance. So we are all whole and well!!! And I will not turn into my crazy mother!!! Yay, yay, yay!!!!

(((Angel))), oh I am so pleased for you, in fact for all of you. I cannot imagine the stress you have been under until the results came through. It will be a while for it to sink in so take care.

KP is doing a happy dance.
