Come on lets be serious, babies born with tiny heads would probably end up improving Florida in the long run over its current inhabitants.

Says the two cases occurred in women from countries where Zika is endemic.

My sister had a baby born with microcephaly. She's half deaf, colorblind, disabled, and about five years old now.
It's terrible for everyone involved. The child has no life, and needs to be monitored 24/7. I mean, it's so sad, but they make the best of it and bring her to every party. You can't even tell if the child is in pain, or if she's enjoying herself though. They usually just put her next to them and put a mini-tv with cartoons in front of her face, but it's doubtful if she understands any of it.
It's one of those things to where it'd almost be better to let the child go... but man, that's so tough. I feel terrible for my sister, but she's really taken it in stride. One of my biggest questions is what happens to children like with that condition if their mother is unable to care of them (for instance, dies) and no family is able to take custody. Does she become a ward of the state? How old do these kids get before they usually die? I don't see her aging past the age of 13 or so.
Visiting reminds me just how cruel life can be, but seeing how well my sister takes care of her also reminds me how strong a mother's love is.
Edit: I think she has more than microephaly. She's completely paralyzed for instance.

Microcephaly is caused by some rather serious genetic problems. Forgot off the top of my head because I haven't been concerned with cytogenetics as a diagnostic tool in quite some time, but things like breaks of an entire chromosome, or entire arms of 1 chromosome swapping places with another. It is usually 1 of many abnormalities that arise from something like that.

Yea. Those type of chromosomal defects can be detected with a sampme from an amnio. Cytogenetics is essentially just using a light microscope (or florescent) to see large defects. Like bands and "higher"

If it ever gets to be too much for her you could lighten the load by getting her a rescue pit-bull. They know how to handle the weak and vulnerable. I'm sure she will appreciate the companionship.
