[quote=Anonymous] Prior Poster as the mom to the young adult with Down Syndrome or DS, I can tell you there are three different kinds: - Trisomy 21 is a random chance event and not directly related to a familial genetic condition. This was important for us to know from the get-go as two of my other siblings were expecting a baby within days of one another. More to the point, we had two girls already, so it was good to know it was not likely to be passed on. In our case, however, Hodgkins and lymphoma cancers seem to be in the family genetic make-up so you just never know. - Mosaic Down Syndrome and Translocation Down Syndrome are the two other expressions of Down syndrome.[/quote]
