Re: Digest version and Baby, A theory I have about charge

[Guest guest]

Baby---

Ok I just want to start by saying I dont want to frighten or make

anyone mad, I just have a theory of charge, and my comments are based

on articles I have read, I will scan them onto my computer and make

them available for ppl to read.

statisticly speaking it would be the same for anyone before you have

your 1st charger, however the chances of having a second charger are

much more likely. the child dosent nesisaraly have to have chargs, but

can have charge caracteristics. There are also other issues like ADD

and ADDH that seem to run in the family of chargers. I know my

father's second child (im his first) has ADD, learning diffriculty and

has speech impairment.

Personaly I feel that a 0.007 chance of having a second charge child

seems to be a bit low, considering how many ppl on this list have more

then one child with charge and have children with charge like features.

We do not yet know what causes charge or what it affects. I have a

theaory that perhaps there is a " ghost 3rd chromosome " or one

chromosome that is acting almost like 2 chromosomes instead of one. I

say this cause look at all the " Trisonmy -- " features and there are a

lot that over lap with CHARGE. (ie hand crease similar to DOWNS

syndrom, hart issues, colemboma, growth issues, ear stuff, heck, it

seems like CHARGE is like trisonmy without the extra chromosome!

Well, thats just my $0.02
