The optician told him that Shane had the worse case he's ever seen...he's got some sort of eye deficincy thing. He can't really tell the color green. It's weird! Totally shattered our world bc all his life he wanted to either be a police officer or a fireman. And you have to not be colorblind for that!Mandi @ Sweetly Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15048025096730223820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264745114955941748.post-35838001366513384662009-07-31T10:48:48.942-04:002009-07-31T10:48:48.942-04:00Haha!!

Almost none of the "King" kids had the middle knuckle of their fingers! The day I noticed that at a family reunion freaked me out!! Their rings just slid around on their fingers. Gross! I was SO STRESSED about that when I have having kids, although none of my immediate family members had that problem.<br /><br />When my first child was born that was THE FIRST thing I looked at! It didn't really matter to me if she had ten fingers and ten toes, only that the ones she did have had knuckles!! :)<br /><br />Happily, all four of my children can properly grip a baseball.<br /><br />Funny post!! :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053965057224582328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264745114955941748.post-31149442969761445502009-07-31T10:15:19.297-04:002009-07-31T10:15:19.297-04:00what surprising news... :(
but -- to if you do ...what surprising news... :( <br /><br />but -- to if you do the genetics, if color blindness does not run in your family (that is, you are homozygous for non-color blindness), it is possible that your son's may not be color blind!! <br /><br />Color blindness is a sex-linked trait, which means it's carried on the X chromosome, of which, your hubby only has one. <br /><br />If, FD is not color blind, than, his X-chromosome does not have the color-blindness gene (otherwise he'd express it). Thus, he cannot pass it on to your kids. BUT, if your family has a history of color blindness, than, it might be possible that you are heterozygous for color blindness, meaning one of your alleles is for blindness, the other for normal color sight, in which case, depending on what X you pass on to your male kids, they might have a chance to be color blind. But, if not, then you're likely home free. <br /><br />FD will only pass on his Y chromosome to your boys, which is free-from the color-blindness gene. <br /><br />Geeze, now I'm bio-speaking and rambling... if you want to know more, I'll be happy to talk for hours... :)SnoWhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264745114955941748.post-49802522856687909922009-07-31T09:56:13.823-04:002009-07-31T09:56:13.823-04:00I have several friends that are color blind and th...I have several friends that are color blind and they make it through life just fine. :) But...my husband's co-worker was complaining about his neighbor painting his house all sorts of crazy colors. Then they found out he was color blind and that's what looks best to him. You just might have to help coordinate for your future sons. But just think...your grandsons will be able to see colors just fine. :) XOXOGwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830655404317102950noreply@blogger.com
