Hi Michele,
have'nt been tested yet, waiting for an appointment. Hopefully soon.

It is a terrible disease and yes it is hereditary, it does'nt miss a generation. At present I have a 50% chance of having it. If I test negative (hopefully) then none of my children or grandchildren will have it. If I test positive then my 3 children have a 50% chance of having the faulty gene.

Thanx Michele for your thoughts and what a lovely thought you have given me and my family about my mother going to heaven on xmas day.

Hugs to all
Geraldine
