Do you know if you or your child has Stickler's? There is a 50% chance of
passing Stickler's on once you have it. We had a blood test to confirm my son's
diagnosis, but there was no indication prenatally that he had a genetic
disorder. -Peggy Green

My child was born with a cleft palate due to Pierre Robin Syndrome. I
am woundering if anyone knows of some test or something that can be
done to determine that if I have a second child if they will have
Pierre Robin Syndrome also, and if they do have PRS how mild or severe
it will be. My husband and I are considering having a seciond child
but are unsure of the risk of them also having PRS like my first
child. Any information would be extremely helpful.
