sounds like she does ok, exspecially considering her trisomoy. like i said, most with trisomoy end up with severe mental retardation or death. Alot of that can prob be worked on with the proper help(except obviously the random sight loss) U and her are very lucky.
keep us updated on her!!

?
it could get worse as she gets older but u got to look twords the positive side. like i said before trimosoy of most chromosomes can and does cause either severe mental retardation or death. For her to be as functional as she is then ur lucky! even if she does end up getting worse(which she might not, just have to be prepared) then u at least got some good years. most do not get that. i hope she does well!! any pics of the little one??chloe;4187619; said:nope its nothing to do with family lol my family all thought she would have got it from me because i can b a bit slow at times lol but we had the blood tests and im not a carrier so i had to contact her dad and he agreed to do one, but i dont know if hes done it or what...but i have no results either way, so im a bit annoyed about that.
tbh i think it could swing either way, they say it could be possible it gets worse as she gets older, but no one really knows.
i think they r just iving me all the options just to be on the safe side.
