Hi everyone,

I just joined this group last week and I guess it's time to

introduce myself. My name is Ann Marie and I have GGG triplets who

are 2 1/2. Two are identical and one is fraternal. One of the

girls who is identical has many (although they are subtle) features

of Ds. (It is possible for a monozygotic twin to have mosaic Ds if

the mistake in cell replication happened after the egg split). She

has had some genetic testing done for mosaic Ds but nothing has

shown up yet. It is possible we have not had enough cells tested or

maybe it is a very low percentage of cells that are affected. WE

are on a waiting list for another geneticist. All of her therapists

and specialists have noticed her features and wondered about the Ds,

so it's not just me thinking it. She currently receives OT, PT,

Speech, and Teacher of the deaf services through early

intervention. Are there any members out there with monozygotic

twins, one of whom has mosaic Ds? I'd be very interested to speak to

you. Thanks!!

Ann Marie
