Meanwhile, I enjoyed the Aug. 25 article about unexpected and sometime unpleasant surprises from DNA tests.

Oh, I'll have to look for this. I know two people who got surprises: a coworker who discovered a brother he didn't know he had and a friend whose family found out, after their dad's death, that he'd had a son out of wedlock before marrying their mom. Both son and his mother were deceased by the time the family saw the report.

Yikes! I hyperventilate about taking 3 ibuprofen a week...!

Then you'll positively clutch your pearls and swoon dead away to know that my dermatologist has added an immunosupressant to my regimen.
