So, my perfect donor is a carrier for spinal muscular atrophy. We talked to our RE about it and she said it's only a concern if my husband is a carrier, which he is not. They are running genetic testing again, just in case. I just got the paperwork for the donor and I have to sign something saying I know about the fact that she is a carrier, which makes sense, but the information about spinal muscular atrophy kinda freaked me out. My RE is a real straight shooter, so I'm sure she would lay it all out if there were any real risk, but... Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks!
