[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 9514, member: 439"] I would write her a letter, asking the specific questions. If you get a reply, fine, if not, just let it go. As time goes on, there are more and more genetic markers being found for diseases, and I don't think it's too far in the future that we won't really need medical histories - a genetic profile will be able to tell us most of this. Also, even having histories can be mis-information. My dad's parents died so young (both in their 40's) that things like colon cancer never had a chance to show up. My dad got it anyway........
