Planning the birth

Grandmothers (both from father’s and mother’s side) died at the age of 51 and 45 respectively from cancer. The doctors believed that the disease was hereditary. The family was concerned: did the spouse inherit this hereditary disease? Will an expected child also inherit it? With the help of Charity Fund Life Genome, a full genome sequencing of the biomaterial taken during the life of the grandmother (father’s side) was carried out, and the cause of the disease was identified. Genetic analysis confirmed that the disease is not hereditary. Now the young family is planning a pregnancy and is not afraid of having a baby.
