[quote=Anonymous]I married my DH knowing there was a very serious genetic disease that ran through his family (three affected siblings and two affected first cousins) but the chances I also carried the recessive gene were very low. My kids do not have it. But one has a disorder which has an inherited tendency. I knew nothing about a history of it on his side until long after one of my kids was affected. And we are now doing testing on the other DC, now a young adult, for another genetic disorder that certainly would have come from his side given his ethnicity. He has no relatives affected with it that we know of. I would not dream of pressing the issue with DH. It's all the luck of the draw, and he has a niece and a nephew who are completely unaffected by any genetic/inherited disorder despite both parents coming from the same ethnic group. [/quote]
