Get Tested for SMA

I was on Yahoo and stumbled across an article. It was super upsetting...a family has created a bucket list for their 5 month old who is dying of SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy). If you're anything like me, you're singular in your focus to have a child and only want to think about the good...but please, please be sure to have your OBGYN test you and your husbands/significant others for diseases like this. Both of the little girl's (Avery) parents were carriers and there was a 25% chance that she would get it. I think the worse thing in the world would be to try hard for a baby and then watch it get sick. I pray against disease for all of you.
Link to article below...Warning, it is super sad and terminal so don't read it if you're like me and 5 months from now you'll be crying about Avery.
