This is what I have decided.

 

When Caleb and finished our conversation the other day  I told him that I had to put some things in order first, and then I would be tested. I'm leaving it at that until he comes to me again. I am NOT going to let him test. I love my son and I want him to be happy and full of life and to focus today on today. Not saying we cannot make some plans for the future and talk about HD because we certainly can, but I refuse to allow him to dwell on it.

 

He is just starting to pull it all back together from where everything sort of fell apart and overwhelmed us before. Lets see Gracie just turned 2 so I guess the changes started about 2 1/2 years ago. We had to move so I could take care of my parents. Which meant pulling Caleb out of the only school he knew, and moving him in with sick grandparents one with HD. This was happening while I was recovering from heart and kidney failure and then found out I was two months pregnant two weeks after our move. Lets say HIGH RISK pregnancy. Then she was taken early. So here we are with a preemie and their dad decides to leave when she is two months old leaving us with no word as to were he is and no money. Many of you know this story, and many of you thank God where there for me and got me through this. I just wanted to retell the short version to tell where Caleb is pulling himself up from. His grades are coming back up. His teachers say he is doing much better. His attitude is better overall, of course he is a soon to be teen so that will be adjusting from time to time. Anyway, the last thing he needs is something else hanging over his head.

 

So no test till he is 18 and then it is his decision. Hopefully he will never have to be tested. I pray he never has to be tested.

 

Thank you everyone for answering.

 

Love and prayers,
