Thank you; well if it IS Italian, that would explain how I got it;

my mother's mother was born in Italy and I have a fragment

(I know, Rosemary, " showoff! " ) of another Italian mutation

AND DELTAF508--THIS IS DEFINITELY CF. If any of you

remember my old e-mail address at aol, Mcesana, what that

was was " M " for n with my grandmother's maiden name, " Cesana, " added--was I

not surprised to find how

many there are! Wonder if their families are also Sephardic

jews and have cf? I'll shut up now!

Love,

n Rojas, off to see the elk today!

Re:ish Mutations

One of JC's mutations (R1162X) is from Italian decent. We thought

that one he got from me because of my close Italian heritage. When I

got pregnant later (a miscarraige) my OBs office had started testing

for cf carriers so I had them test me. Well, I have the other

mutation (2789+5G>A), not the Italian one. ?????

trying to figure out who's mutation is who's. My hubby is German,

English, Polish and Lithuanian and I am Irish and ish. One of

's genes is G115D and it could be either of ours but her other

is 1898+1G>A, a Welsh mutation (well at least it is very uncommon in

people of any other descent) Go figure!
