“Good genes” and “bad genes” are a kind of myth. What genes are – and what they are not – are often obscured by a lack of accurate information. They’re very, very small, but genes are physical things. Genes don’t have a soul, any more than a single cell does, or a hand, foot or eyeball does.”

“When scientists let a genie out of the bottle, the spirit may be out of control. They honestly have no idea what will actually happen next after they lift the lid.”

“A baby’s individual potential, whether they’re later diagnosed with a condition like PKU or a chromosomal change like Down syndrome, is impossible for anyone to predict from prenatal genetic testing alone. Each baby’s life journey will be unique. A combination of body, mind and spirit. Of the interactions between genes, environment and love.”
