CCBadmin	Link \| Top \| Bottom Re: donor health 01/19/06 4:55 PM np, Thank you for your interest in our program. Our genetic counselors do questions the mental health history of every donor. We also ask the donors about their smoking and drinking habits. If we feel that a donor has an increased risk of passing on an illness or defect due to his family history or behavior, we will not accept the donor in our program. We do not ask the donors about being breast-fed because we have not received sufficient information that breast feeding would have any genetic affects on an offspring. Sincerely, CCB
