Julia,

I was born eighteen years ago with CDH on my left side. I am curious on whether or not it is hereditary. No one else in my family has CDH, but I am still curious on whether I could pass it on to my future children. Also, because of my birth genetics is my passion. Is there any advice on college majors/masters that will help me become a genetic counselor? I plan on finding out why CDH happens and how it can be prevented. Thank you.
