To day I am going to write a case about which I got to know from one government research center in India. They got one case of Fragile X kid, whose mother was a carrier but the couple was not aware of that. When they observe something abnormal in their first kid, they planned for their second kid (at that time the first kid was 2 years and 4 months old). Mother found herself unable to conceive and after testing they got to know about Fragile X. But it was too late, they tried for egg donor and after 2 trails, they had a miracle of 1 normal kid.
We can learn from this example, and spread the awareness to wards Fragile X syndrome and its testing. Sometimes cost should not be the concern when it is about your babies...isn't it, but still here in India, a lot to be done in this regard. Couples, if they go for genetic testing (rare), they just want the screening...whether they are positive or negative and not the details. they don' know that the details may affect the risk of expansion in next generation........so friends....spread this...share this with your friends, families, colleagues and take active participation in revolution of Fragile X Diagnosis...

Have a Nice Week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
