My friend's 10 year Marriage is about to collapse.
This, my
friend's genotype is AA and his wife's genotype is AS but their 4 year
old daughter has been confirmed to have SS genotype by not less than 4
different medical experts. He confronted the wife and accused her of
infidelity but she vehemently denied having any affair with another man.
In other to prove her wrong, my friend subjected the little girl to a
paternity test and there he got the shock of his life - the result
showed he actually is the father of the girl. At first he accused the
doctor of compromise because he is their family doctor and somehow
relates to the wife. He then decided to go to another hospital to prove
the paternity of the girl child there and then he got another shocker -
the first result was actually correct. As It stands, my friend has
consulted more than five other doctors outside the state of his
residence and all Confirmed that the girl's genotype is SS and he
actually is the father of the child despite his and the wife's genotype
being as stated above. Even the doctor's are confused by the results as
it negate conventional medical norm.
My question now is, experts
in the house, is there anything that can lead to such unconventional
biological flaw? Under what condition can AS and AA couple have an SS
child? Can mutation lead to such condition? My friend insists on divorce
because he doesn't believe the wife. Should he go ahead based on what
we all know about genotype?
Please I need matured advice on
this. This is a REAL LIFE SITUATION AND NO FICTION. I WOULD HAVE
MENTIONED NAMES AND ADDRESS OF THE COUPLE BUT I DON'T HAVE THEIR
PERMISSION YET. THIS IS HAPPENING RIGHT HERE IN PORT HARCOURT OLD GRA
WE'RE LIVING
