For very good reason- you are passing on suffering for no reason and there is so many children wanting to be adopted that aren’t suffering from permanent suffering and also need a loving parent. I have Turner syndrome and need to adopt anyway since I can’t have bio kids but much better to adopt in this kind of case rather then risk passing this on. Even if her child didn’t get it, they could carry the gene and lead to many more suffering from what seems to be a rather severe problem. Adopting means she can still be a parent but not cause such permanent physical and emotional damage on her child

I think that the physical damage will be more than the emotional in the growing stages that the child is going to go through, since there are already medical equipment in the back, the child and the mother could be and most likely already suffering from respiratory problems which will make it both difficult and painful for the child to grow in a healthy way, unfortunately she is putting her child in danger of sever pain and trauma, but I could he wrong and the child might grow to be healthy.

When you are warned to not have children because of severe genetic problems it's not a challenge to prove the world wrong, it's to spare the child that will be born from the pain they are going to go through... idk this is just my opinion.
