The Baxley family has a rare and fatal neurological condition called GSS. All have a 50/50 chance of inheriting it. This book traces the research into the discovery of GSS and how family members used scientific breakthroughs in genetic counseling and fertility treatments to test and screen for it so as to avoid passing it down. Very readable and interesting. But who is the saint? Why, science— of course!
