DNA Testing

5 Comments

A recently reunited friend needs a DNA test.

Curious if any of my blog readers/adoption friends have a service/kit/etc. to recommend?

Cost is a factor for this individual. Presuming a cheek swab and mailing away to a lab could confirm paternity. Alleged parent has not denied paternity but also has not confirmed. Said “it was possible”.  Friend is hoping a test (which parent has agreed to) will solve the great mystery.

Please feel free to leave a comment or if you prefer send me email at bluestokking at gmail dot com.

Thanks.
