Responce to Patau Syndrome Blog

http://sokka-silverstar.blogspot.com/. This is where I found out the genetic disorder that is Patau's Syndrome. If someone has this disorder they probably won't live to be two. With this disorder a fetes is created with an extra copy of chromosome 13. That means that instead of two copies there would be three. As well as just the extra chromosome there is pretty much everything wrong with them. You can probably imagine the mortality rate would be pretty high. Then you would be right because the mortality rate of Patau's Syndrome is 82% for death within the first month. 5-10% sadly only make it to the first year. But sadly the worst part is that there is no cure for Patau's Syndrome. There is however a surgery that can cover some of the symptoms like extra fingers and toes. Did you know that this disorder was discovered as early as 1657. Another interesting fact is that the oldest person with patau's Syndrome lived up to 33. That's pretty old for an 82% chance of dieing in the first month. If you don't believe than you can just go to the site listed above.
