test story
My name is Riley Nichol and I am a Hemophilia A mild. I am 15 years old, in grade 10 and I love sports. My favorite class in school is gym, where I take the opportunity to try all different types of sports. Over the years I have even played volleyball and basketball for the school. Our volleyball teams did pretty good. Our basketball team however never won a game, but we had fun.

Sandra’s Family Diagnosis and Carrier Testing
I have two daughters and two very different stories of how each of them came to find out their carrier status. I was diagnosed as a carrier several months after my son was diagnosed as a severe hemophiliac. The process was simple my blood was taken, my mom’s blood was taken and off it was sent to a lab far away to determine how this mutated gene got to my baby boy. I was the carrier and it all started with me. Our past was determined. Now our future became cloudy, beyond how hemophilia would impact our son, was the question of how hemophilia would affect our daughter in the future.
