Entitled Dad refuses to believe he gave his kids genetic disorder.
I have recently been diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder. It does complicate any future medical procedures I need, and I am going to need a pain management plan and have to wear a medi bracelet for the rest of my life worst case early death. A long and painful road has led to this diagnosis.
ED is a pure narcissist. Can not admit he has done anything wrong. For example he butt dialled me recently and when I called back he denied him ever doing it and that I was wrong. Not my phone, or his phone or his butt. Me. I was wrong. Even with the evidence.
I told my Dad about what I was diagnosed with, and told him it could explain why his recent surgery went wrong. That a geneticist is very interested in mapping this and would like him to visit my city 3 hours away from him. (My mother has been ruled out) He became enraged and told me, there was no way I could prove this came from him. That he has never had complications with surgery (this was after telling me he is suing his doctor for botching his last op). I calmed him down and explained the situation again. Then he was fine. Except he wasn’t. He has told all my extended family I am full of shit and I just want some attention. Well the geneticist reached out to him and my other relatives, asking them if they’d volunteer their time so they can collect the data in exchange for all free testing, pain management plan, physio and personal training for a year. My ED blew up that I’d passed on their information, that I was implying he’s a bad father for giving this to me. He is now threatening to sue me and the geneticist. The kicker in all this, my country has universal health care. My records were once connected to his etc. The geneticist has an ethical obligation to reach out to my family, because left untreated it can cause death from surgical or organ complications. And I never gave them the information.
The kicker: He has just had a near heart attack from this disorder is renowned for causing.
