“My brother did not do so and is now expecting his first child with SIL. My SIL reached out to ask me questions about how it could be passed down to her child and I informed her I didn’t do the session.”
“My brother and SIL demanded I schedule the session and give them information.”
The major problem here is that her insurance will not cover this session, and she will have to completely pay for it out of her own pocket.
Another issue is that in order for her to get to the session at a specific clinic, it’s a 3-hour drive for her, and that’s just one-way.
She isn’t due back to the clinic until this upcoming fall for her yearly checkup, and it’s really out of her way to make the trip there.
Additionally, she had to have some kind of surgery for his disorder, which she is still recovering from so driving that far isn’t feasible.
She told her brother that she was not going ahead with the session, and she told him that he should go get a blood test done to determine if he has the same problem.
She also mentioned to him that if the counseling was so important to him, he could go and do it.
I refused and said my brother should start by doing the blood test to see if it’s even an issue and then he could pay for the counseling if he wants it.
Well, some of her other family members got involved and attacked her for not doing the session and accusing her of being a jerk since she should do it for the sake of her unborn nephew or niece.
She’s seriously concerned that she is a jerk and her family is right since she was able to get the session done but she chose not to, and she also knows that her brother wanted to have children.
