: Hello,
: Haley is over 2 and a half. She was born at
: 32 weeks with PRS. I have loved every
: minute of the sometimes trying journey. I
: would like to have another child. My
: husband is extremely worried that a second
: child might have PRS or something worse.
: Does anyone know statistics on PRS inside a
: family? The occurrence among siblings?
: Haley was genetic tested at after birth and
: showed genetic abnormalities and so far has
: had no other complications.
: Thank you,
: Haley's Mom
:
: Did you say they did find abnormalities with
: the genetic testing? As far as I know PRS is
: not genetic, but alot of children with PRS
: also have Sticklers syndrome, which is
: genetic. My son did not show any signs of
: sticklers until he was 16 and we only found
: out he had sticklers a few weeks ago, so
: please check into that. Take care and good
: luck.
