    I am so sorry your sister is going through this Lisa

    I dont know much about chromosome 18 but I know that it can result in a number of conditions.

    I also know that the NT scan and blood tests dont necessarily pick up everything

    My prayers are with your sister. Take care xxx

    Oh Lisa my heart breaks for your sister. I would think they would do an amnio to confirm the diagnosis. Many to you and your sister xxx.

    Regards,

    That's awful . I will be thinking of your sister . Sorry I don't know much about chromosomes, but how did she discover she had a c18 baby? Was it a scan (they are just indicative, not diagnostic, I thought only blood tests were diagnostic?).
