Answer: The odds of your next child having the disease are 1 in 4.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an incredibly life-shortening disease, though some individuals live to their thirties. The counsellor should ensure to educate the couple on the challenges of managing a child with cystic fibrosis. There are tests they can take during the first trimester or second trimesters of pregnancy to find out if a fetus will have the illness. The counselor should let the couple know that their decision to have a test and to go forward with any pregnancy is up to them.
