Journalist doing PGD & writing about it - looking for others like me

[dk135]

Hi there,

I'm writing an in-depth article about using PGD to eliminate genetic mutations for diseases (like breast or colon cancer) that have plagued families for generations. I will be telling my own story, but am looking for others willing to share their experiences, good or bad.

If you:

1. Have tested positive for a genetic mutation
2. Are considering PGD for it, have done PGD, or have considered it and decided against it

Please e-mail me at dk135@columbia.edu for an off-the record, confidential chat. Even if you don't want to participate in the article, it would be nice to hear from others grappling with these decisions.

looking forward to hearing from you.

Debbie
