I'm as bi-polar too. So is my dad, and so was his mom. My mom has some
sociopathic tendencies. My dad is also a schisophrinic, and cancer runs
in his family. In fact every one on his side gets cancer at least once
in their life. Not to mention Endo. My Aunt has that. My mom's mom,
her sister, and I have thyriod problems. My mom has clisac disease.
There is so much that runs in my family I don't care to list it all. But
none of this stuff is going to stop me from having kids if I can. No
one has the right to say that because some disease runs in your family
you shouldn't have kids. It's pretty much as bad as saying because your
black you shouldn't have kids. Oh wait I'm part black too. People
should think before they open their mouths.
