Genetic Testing and Disease

After reading this I am still wondering if I would want to know or if I wouldn't.  It would be scary to know but if you did you could know what is going and what you could do to help it especially at an early age of 18. I think that it would effect me emotionally and I probably would live the rest of my life in fear of what could happen. I wouldn't do anything fun knowing what I was going to go through. The thing that is probably helping her the most is going through counseling but that still wouldn't recover you all the way. The fact that she is going to do a documentary is crazy, I could never put my life everywhere especially doing something like that. But if I saw my mom going through what her mom was going through I would want to get tested to as early as I could so I wouldn't have to go through the same thing. It was talking about testing on the internet for as little as $100 but I would never do that because it is not trustworthy. I thought it was very strong for her to say she could take the news but it was sad to here her say if it came back positive she would have to see her father cry. I still am not sure if I would get tested or not.
