Hi Carole,

How are your sister in law's bones? Has she had any/many breaks? Also, have

you check the colour of the whites of her eyes?

Often people with osteogenesis imperfecta type 1 present exactly like EDS,

except without healing issues. However, they usually have bluish/greyish

sclerae (whites of the eyes). Many doctors expect many breaks in an OI

person, but some never break at all. Perhaps your sister in law should check

this out.

Cheers, Glenda
