My BF got GREAT news today and I was glad to get to be there with him for it. Negative test results. TOTALLY negative. No chance of him passing on this genetic order to his children, no chance of him developing the disease.

I know what a relief it is for him, I can only imagine the weight off his shoulders. And it feels pretty darn good to know that he's okay and that he can live his life now like anyone else with the same opportunities as anyone else.

GREAT way to end the week.

That is REALLY fantastic!! Soo good to hear that!! And now any fears you had as well are also calmed.. Glad it was great news!

Thank you all so much!! Because it was a secret in his life, you all were the only ones I could talk to about it and THANK GOODNESS for you all.

You're all WONDERFUL.

Good news for him and you.

If I may just to be even more cautious about moving things too fast to where you'd like it to be.

I don't think many know how his thought processes have been when he wasn't sure if he was positive or not but now that he knows he's negative, does he have to re-program himself for certain things?

He may need a little time to let this sink in. I would maybe take things a little slow at first, let him drive the train for a bit.

Pretzel - most definitely. Well if it were me, I'd think many things would change in my mind knowing I was negative. We talked about it Saturday night and I asked him if he felt different etc. He said of course he's relieved, and is looking towards his future now as far as advancing in his job to where before to some extent he felt held back. He feels much more positive about his future now and about what he's capable of.

You don't have to worry about me moving too fast. A snail would outrun me where relationships are concerned.

I don't think you have to go that slow.

Oh yes I do. It's this problem I have called CS (Commitment Syndrome).....LOL. But that's for another thread.

I haven't been on here for a while, so sorry for the belated congrats... but CONGRATS! That is terrific news! I hope that you and he can now go forward in your relationship, and really, just in life in general
