Testing children

[Guest guest]

My son was tested when I found out that I had HCV, because of the chance that he could have been infected when he passed through the birth canal. The chances are very low that babies can get it that way. Plus there was the fact that I used to cut myself all the time.... we lived on the ocean and I would be cutting up vegies etc and looking out the window and all of a sudden.. ouch! so either Robbie or would run for bandaids, but thankfully neither of them 'caught' it from me.

Thank you. Actually, I have been clean longer than I used. I only used about six years, it seemed to help when I went through my divorce. He was already using, and at the time, it looked like he had it made, no worries. Boy, was I wrong.

If you believe your kids should be tested then there may be some way of getting this done, I would have to think about that.

It does seem that some people do get a lot of mileage out of their depression, but it is real, and not everyone is able to move on from it. I did take anti-depressants in the past, but decided enough was enough, I am too busy to be depressed any more and that's the truth.scwilson1972 <scwilson1972> wrote:

,10 years clean is a lot to be proud of! So congratulations on the big 10! Unless you can get it from smoking excessive amounts of pot, that isn't how I got it, I believe it must have been a tatoo or possibly, from the child abuse I suffered. I'm not sure which. I'm terrified one of my kids has it. If it is from the tatoo, then my youngest two could have it. They live with their dad and he won't get them tested. He also believes depression is a fad, so that's just the way he is, doens't take any one elses reality too seriously. I am so happy for you, 10 years. Wow!Stacey
