Genetic Lottery: Chad & Alicia Bohley's Journey with MPS1 on Mick Unplugged

So in order for this specific type of mps, there are multiple types, but for MPS one specifically, both parents are carriers. So we both passed on a genetic mutation to him and we just happened to hit the genetic lottery and find a match that both carried this. Every person carries about three to six lethal genetic mutations. It's just finding that partner that also carries it and then potentially passes it on. Because we both carry it. There is a 50% chance that we would have a carrier child, which is our daughter, a 25% chance that we would have an affected child, which is our son, and then the 25% chance to have a completely unaffected child and non carrier child.
