I’m sorry to hear about your wife’s condition. I’ve had family members that have died young from diseases that most people get in old age as well. It’s a very painful experience.
If your outlook improves and you decide to do polygenic embryo screening, reach out to me and I can help give you a more personalized assessment of your prospects. The size of the absolute risk reduction you can get from embryo selection will actually be higher if your or your wife’s risk is higher. So the benefit will likely be higher for the two of you.
Also, the predictors for type 2, obesity, and heart disease are already very good, so if those are your concerns you’re in luck.
