I commend to you a post over at my friend Maya's ("Marf Mom") blog. A guest writer named Sarah has a brief post about her experience using PGD to conceive a baby who would not inherit her Marfan disorder. Marfan is a connective tissue disorder (in fact, it's in the same "family" of genetic disorders as mine—osteogenesis imperfecta). Sarah inherited Marfan from her died, who died from the disorder when Sarah was just a baby. Sarah's PGD cycle was successful, but her subsequent pregnancy with twins was difficult. Read her post here.
Readers are continuing to add new comments to my and my colleague Karen Swallow Prior's dual posts on abortion over at Amy Julia Becker's Thin Places blog, and the comments continue to be challenging, respectful, and engaging. The three of us are really pleased at how our little experiment in respectful dialogue on a polarizing topic has turned out.
