Got my first positive CF carrier test. Hadn't thought that far ahead,
but dad is now asking how strongly I recommend he get tested. IPA paid
for mom's test because she has a card, but dad does not. $349 test. I
told dad he and mom will have to discuss it and make the decision since
he has no insurance. Another one of the hazards of teen sex that he
obviously hadn't considered.
Just curious, what kind of reactions have y'all encountered to positive
tests when dad is uninsured and faced with shelling out big bucks on
this one?
