When we went to the genetic counseling appointment for Maeve it was recommended that I have the chromosomal microarray done to find out whether the abnormality that Maeve has was inherited or de novo (new in her). I went to my doctor and she ordered the test and the result came back normal. I do not think her father will ever get it done but maybe he doesn't have to. If one parent does not have an abnormality is that enough to conclude de novo? I will find out when we go back to see the geneticist in November.
