Wife and I refused amniocentesis tests as they have a risk of causing miscarriage. An ultrasound of one of our children showed abnormal skull circumference to thighbone length and some other similar measurements. The early diagnosis was ‘greater than 50% severely mentally retarded’ and ‘edwards syndrome’ (trisomy 18).

After more and more ultrasounds over the next few months the neonatal specialist ‘backed off that diagnosis.’ She was born small but now as a teenager is perfectly healthy and intelligent.

Perhaps the abnormal findings were that the kiddies were white.
