Your baby's Blood, cont....

Hello again,

I have done my research and have some new info on the article below entittled "Your Baby's Blood". I have confirmed with the State Dept. of Health that they are keeping your childs secimen for 21 years. But suprisingly we do have recourse. They have a form you can fill out to request that the specemin be destroyed.

You can contact the following person and ask to be sent the form.
