[quote=Anonymous]My cousin just found out that her child has a very rare chromosomal disorder (and will not live for very long). Both she and her husband are carriers of the recessive gene. If they were to try IVF for future pregnancies, would they be able to screen the embryos for the 1/4 chance of having the disorder? I have no idea how the science (and ethics) works out on something like this. [/quote]
