Patau's Syndrome

This is the link to a peer's blog.

Patau's Syndrome is a very deadly disease. I feel really sad just thinking of the victims of this terrible sickness. The oldest person to have lived with this disease was 33! That's a really young age to die. There are many harmful symptoms such as incomplete eyesight and smelling nerves, deafness,cleft lip and/or palate, a flat face, lowered or malformed ears, extra fingers or toes along with deformed hands and feet, respiratory difficulties and heart defects, and severe organ malformities. I hope that that scientists find a cure for this terrible malformity and that its victims recover.
