Haemophilia-an inherited sex-linked genetic disorder

I have found genetic disorders very fascinating to read about! Actually, the very first time I'd heard about haemophilia was by my mother who had done art work for a man whose wife had a father with this disorder. Unfortunately, this family had 5 of 7 children who had serious illnesses-2 with haemophilia, 2 with Cystic Fibrosis and a child with leukemia. Three of the 7 children died! 0nly 2 of those 7 children were clinically normal! By reading about hemophilia, I found out that it's a disorder which prohibits the blood from clotting when a child or adult injures himself! The wound continues to bleed! Hopefully, developments have been made to help people who have this serious disorder! Dawn E. Lowenstein
