Yeah, it worked, thanks. But I’d already showed it off all around town. :-(

Well, it was a very nice-looking rash... But still.

Some, however, are more mutant than others...

The article mentions looking at age of parents to see if that affects mutation rate in each parent. They should also look at nutritional status. It has been known that poor conditions for grandparents can affect the health of the grandchildren even if the parents had normal lives. Perhaps this is one explanation. At any rate, I advise anyone planning to get pregnant to go into “training” for 6 months to a year before trying to get pregnant—very good nutrition, exercise, good rest, etc.
