Microduplication on chromosome 22 is very rare and jazmine doesnt
resemble many that have the abnormality. There is actually only 13
reported in the world with the abnormality. Her condition includes, her
Macular, and retinal folds, finger contractures, high arched palate,
microcephaly, abormalities on her big toe, her birth marks, ear pit,
and heart murmuer. there may be more, she's not crawling and she is
almost a year old, no babbling either though she does make sounds. her
head circumfrance is 42cm from 29 when she was born but she is still
very microcephalic. I am nervous to find if her head has grown at her
12 month check up.
All interesting news but no answers and by the looks of it, there wont
be. But hay, she is happy with mommy, beautiful, she laughs, she cries,
she smiles and for all of this I am thankful.
