A thread!
Few weeks after the proposal, during a random conversation with a distant family friend, who is also a medical doctor, on WhatsApp video call, he asked casually if they’ve had a blood/genotype compatibility check.
And my friend said "YES". Although he didn’t sound convincing

3 days after the chat, my friend called me and he was sobbing uncontrollably like a child!
Apparently, they had gone for a genotype/ blood group compatibility testing and his fiancée is AS and so is he...
The implication: They will have at least one SS!

It’s not that they didn’t check before, but clearly, they got a wrong result!
There’s lot of misconceptions that your blood group and Genotype can change!
No, blood group/Genotype is the same for life!
However, some conditions can cause the Genotype to mutate.

However, some conditions can cause the Genotype to mutate.
A mutation of the genotype can affect some characteristics or behavioral effects.
Conditions likely to cause a blood group change; Autoimmune diseases or Malignancies...
Individuals who have also had bone marrow transplants can also have an altered blood group...

And for my friend, well the matter is yet to be settled.
It’s not a test of love.
But they know they have to make the right decisions for their kid’s sake!
The emotional trauma now, is nothing compared to what that child will have to go through.
