Becky,
We had three healhy babies after our PRS baby. However, I know a family where the mother clearly has Sticklers Syndrome and all of her children had PRS. We may have Sticklers in the family. We have sporadic problems with hearing, near sighted and scoliosis that pop up in my husbands extended family.
