I Googled it. It is caused by a recessive gene, which means you have to get the gene from each of your parents. Since Brianna and Roger do have some genetics in common, it is possible but highly unlikely. The combinations of genes brought in over the centuries would really limit the chances. Hopefully this doesn't give Diana any ideas........ -- Ladies of Lallybroch Social Board
