Forgive me Father for I have sinned. Its been 9 years since my last confession.

9 years ago I told Father Mike, that I was not sure if my child was my husband's (and I was right). He told be to pray, seek to live a life of truth and honesty and ask for forgiveness and pray about what I should say to my husband. Evidently, the message from on high was to say nothing. Now the unthinkable has happened, the doctor wants us to do DNA test for illness my daughter has, and I cannot let that happen. The child is not his and I am sooooooooo scared. I have tried to be a good wife and mother and everything is working out just fine, but he's going to the clinic to have the swab on Friday. I have run out of last minute excuses to avoid the lab. I will be shamed to no end, my mother and sisters will have a field day with me. The parish folks will talk about me. My husband will be hurt beyond consolation. WHAT DO I DO???? Somebody tell me.

I hope you burn in hell for cheating on your husband.

Ask the doctor to say the test results determined it will not work, let's face it this isn't as bad as mine, I was in labor and when my child popped out, he was a different shade of color then my husband. The look on everyone's face was priceless

Tell the doctor to hide the result of the test. That's what you can do it.

But doesn't the doctor have a hippocratic oath to try to find out what is wrong with the kid? He can't simply fake the test if it's something that will help find a solution to your daughter's illness. You can try to see if there's any other way to find this out, and in that case telling him your situation would be an okay idea. But if it's a medical necessity...I can't think of a doctor that would put your personal life ahead of the well being of a child. Perhaps the best course of action is, if it is inevitable, to talk to your husband about it ahead of time. Don't let him find out from the doctor first. It's still not great, it's still a long-simmering lie. But maybe your changed life since then, the life you two have lived since (provided there have been no more indiscretions) will be enough to outweigh this revelation. Hopefully something works out...

talk to the doctor and inform him of ur situation! by law he xan not share that info w anyone! then see if u can find the real dad and have him go down for the swab...then when the doctor talks to u and ur husband have him refer to the results as mother and fathers dna and not by names...that way ir hisband assumes the doctor is speaking about him! no harm no foul! hope all works out and I hope ur lil one gets well! :)
