We learned this past week that yet another sibling has been diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. This makes four of eight. Two are deceased, so we will never know if they might carry the gene. Neither of them married or had children who could be tested.
This latest case was found when the tests were completed for the Duke University Medical Center research test. This has strong implications for the next generations. It may also indicate just how strong the gene may be.
