Sickle cell disease is a serious medical problem that should not be taken lightly. Anyone that has lost a loved one through this condition would probably know better. For a couple with AS and AS genotype, there is a 25% chance of having a SS child with each pregnancy. 97% of people of caucasian descent have the AA genotype while 45% of people of Black African descent have AA genotype. |

Well, Faith works and if both of u have the faith that u can actually not have an ss then go ahead. But pls have the option of doing the tests for the foestus b4 its too late. Meanwhile, just like someone posted out here, if no AA agrees to marry the SS, who is going to marry them. Lets stop discriminating, there are sicknessess out there that are worse than SCA and HIV/AIDS! People sleep healthy and die everyday despite the fact that they were healthy the night before! So its not the fact that u have a disease that kills u. I have seen sicklers who have outlived their mockers! It is well with us. If u r AA and u meet an SS, pls let love prevail and go ahead xcept of course u r a fair-weather lover!!! 1 Like |

Me and and my husband are both AS, our two year old daughter is AA, we had CV to determine her genotype. Trying for a second child now, will do CVS again and pray to my God that baby is AA or AS. |

Well I am SS and my fiance is AS. I can assure you that no one knows of the sufferings caused by sickel cell than i. I come from a family of 5 and 4 of us are SS. Thank God we are alive and doing welll despite the terrible challlenges. The 1st decision I beg you to make regardless of who you marry is not to bring in SS children into this world. I and my fiance have chosen to go ahead and marry deciding that we'll have only 1 or 2kids and via IVF. We will undergo preimplantation genotype testing so only the embryos that are not SS will be implanted. We made this choice because I can't imagine getting pregnant then aborting if its SS. The point is your life will be much easier if you marry a person whose genotype is compatible with yours but if not there are other ways to prevent having SS kids just do your research and it will probably cost you a lot but its much better than the financial and emotional costs that come with the disease. I beg whatever you do, do not bring children into this world with sickle cell |

tatiana009: Tatiana; of all the posts have read, there is nothing better than a personal experience and i seriously applaud you for deciding to marry an AS even after all you have been through. I also have a family friend whose in a family with 2 out of 3 kids being SS and i tell you it is one of the most emotionally and financially draining situation. I would advise all to read your very straight forward post so as to understand the consequence should they go ahead and to also understand that in this century there are ways to prevent such even if you decide to marry incompatible partners. GODbless you tatiana and may He comfort you in your time of pain and ofcos heal you as we know He can do it, 2 Likes 1 Share |

It may be hard to let go, but you have to think about the future and be brave about it. The present heartbreak from separation is better than the future heartbreak from losing the fruits of your relationship. |

Don't know much about genetics, but if the at-risk wife carrying the fetus poses no threat, why not get egg from a non-risky donor and have the wife carry the husband's baby. That's what I'd do. Definitely would marry the love of my life; just won't put the children at risk. That would mean no children from my ovaries, but if you carry a child to term, who's to know. . . ? Sounds complex? Sorry, I can't make it any clearer than that. |

Personally, I cant but not errbody is the same, especially when one has gotten 2 certain stage in the relationship or is already married before finding out thats why if you are AS or SS you should be more careful n should maybe even be a question u'd ask on the first date sef I have a family friend, they are AS n AS all their 4 kids turned out AA, they were lucky because dey ddnt kno each others' till after they were married, dey may b excused because twas bout 30yrs ago n dey grew up in the more rural ares of naija my cousin has two one AA n the other SS, it sucks like crazy but luckily the boy doesnt get ill that much sha. so me, i cant, you, good luck mehn, |

duduspace: A lot of ignorance being spewed on here and it shows most people do not really have true love in their lives. My thoughts almost precisely. I'm certainly not for it neither am I against it- the koko of the oro is know thyself and understand what your getting yourself into. I also like that you remind people that completely healthy individuals have kids with genetic disorders. Calling those things that be not as though they were ! |
Re: Can You Take The Risk Of Marrying A Genotype Incompartible Partner? by 49cents(m): 11:38pm On Oct 15, 2013 |
@duduspace All this love talk abegi....when ur with someone it can feel like they are the air u breathe and thus can imagine without them.....but if you are attentive u will find that there is actually a life without them. Why should I deliberately have children who may turn out SS that's selfishness not love. Childless couples are a different case altogether! It is not okay for a couple not to be open to the possibilty of having children especially where nothing but there petty projects iare involved! You can be happy with anybody once ur happy with yourself first! |
