Slide8Slide9Slide10Example of Genetic Determinism
Later that week, I get an email addressed to my daughter, whom I had just tucked in for the night. Her [23andMe] results are ready, and I approach them with an even greater ravenousness [than my own results]. At first glance, everything looks great…
And there it is, screaming out at me from my computer screen. My daughter, who is learning to read and tie her shoes, has two copies of the APOE-4 variant, the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's. According to her 23andMe results, she has a 55% chance of contracting the disease between the ages of 65 and 79.
My husband, who is out of town on business, texts that he will call me at 8:30. "Everything okay?" he adds. "All good," I write back, "except our daughter is going to get Alzheimer's."
