Oh sorry, that just came all in a mad rush. I loved my uncle and family. And if I ever have children I will need to have genetic counseling. But I would never and I mean never have wished my uncle's life on anyone. My own mother was afraid she herself could give birth to a child with such problems, and when she was pregnant with me, chose not to have an abortion because of the chance something could be wrong with me. Their were tests avaible but their was also a high chance of miscarriage if she did those tests becaues she was already had an high risked pregnancy because of her, age, fortunely I came out ok. But if I ever became pregnant, know adays that tests are alot safer, I would have them done, and if I found out my baby did have Fragile X, or if I was even a carrier of that gene. I would abort the child and decide to never have children. The one thing I never want to do is give my uncle's life to child, even my own. And Sean's child won't even have kidney, spinal, or difficulty walking or talking. Sean and Juila and their son will be fine. Acourse this show is going to live up the drama. Would I abort a baby that was otherwise healthy but had deformed hands..no.
My own mother was born with a deformity, a cleft plate, for the first six months of her life, her parents had to force down about every drop of food or milk she needed. After Juila's son is born he will even be able to nurse. My mother went on to have hers fixed acourse, and is fine know. But the baby won't even suffer that.
