Krabbe Awareness - 21

Most of us have no idea we carry Krabbe until we have a child born with it. For those families, if a subsequent pregnancy were to occur, they could be tested as early as 10-12 weeks to see if the child has the disease. If the tests are positive, they prepare for a stem-cell transplant and often induce labor at 35-36 weeks to ensure that there is little to no disease progression at birth. Someday they hope to do the transplant in utero without chemo, which will be easier for the child.
