Respons to Patriots Fan's Patau Syndrome Blog

The disease founded in 1957 by Eramus Bartholan is called Patau's Syndrome. It was founded by Eramus but ascertained by Dr. Klaus Patau. Symptoms of this disease can be a cleft lip, missing an eye, an underdeveloped brain, lung and heart problems, mental disorders, and extra fingers or toes. There is no cure, but the lung and heart problems can be fixed by doctors. One in 16,000 people suffer from this disease, but eighty-two percent die before they reach one years old. Five to ten percent make it to one year. The rest make it shortly into adulthood. Also called Tristan 13, this genetic disorder is caused by deformed cells that are deformed because of an extra copy of a parents chromosome. I think it is a very unfortuante disease and that we should all respect the perseverance of people with this disease and their family. It is something nobody should wish upon anyone and I hope that they someday find a cure so that people with this disease can live a totally normal life. Amen to all patients with Patau's Syndrome.
