Things have turned out worse than we ever could have imagined.
We have a baby. I can't tell you whether it's a boy or a girl, because it's neither and both. Male by the chromosomes, girl by the anatomy. Other deformities: polydactyly on the feet, extra fingers on the hands, undersized chin, misplaced and malformed ears, and the club feet.
Collectively, with the heart defect and IUGR = Smith Lemli Opitz Syndrome.
SLOS. Before yesterday, I'd never heard of it. Now it has changed my life forever.
