...offspring with a partner who has Multiple Sclerosis ? I have not found hard proof for sure that it is passed through genetics?I am really appreciating the food for thought, I just got married 2 months ago and had a family member call me yesterday and said "you arent having children with him are you, he has MS..." and I just cant get that comment out of me head, we want a family we talked about all of this over the last 5 years of being together but what a downer comment, which lead me to think Am I not considering the bigger picture.

No, it would not.I have a good friend who has MS, his wife does not. They have three beautiful kids. All are healthy and normal.

I am not in the medical field, but would say no. - if we knew our futures, nobody would have kids... there's all kinds of things out there that can hurt and/or kill us. - don't stop living......do what you feel is right in your heart. if you want kids, then MS is not anything to consider or kick you off track of your life. - go for it !
