Subject: [PRATHER-L] Color Blindness
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 1998 21:11:27 EST


Carol and Laurie,
Don't know if the color blindness is hereditary, but my brother was too.
But to my knowledge, he was the only one in my family that had this condition.
Medically, ---regarding your message about the "HELP" online. That is
an excellent idea. A hospital in Houston, Texas (The Methodist Hospital) has
a program that they just started not too long ago, regarding bone marrow
donors for Native Americans. They found out that ethnic blood donors for
their same race are better matches and the transplants have better results
overall. I have Native American blood in me too, but don't think it is on
the Prather side, unless it goes back a long way. I have been told by my
Mother and my aunt that their father told them. I hope I can find this
somehow, otherwise it will have died with him.
Will stop rambling now. Have a great day. I watch all postings and
feel this Prather party line is great. I have found a lot of information on
mine by just watching.
Later
Karen
