We're waiting to get an appointment to determine the answer. In the meantime, we've done more reseach on the symptoms. Signs that he has include his chest deformity, kyphosis, scoliosis, flat feet, his abnormal "wingspan" (arms extended are wider than he is tall by 4 inches), his hands, and his build.
Rhonda had the following image on the computer:

Brad walked in and said something like, "Hey, when did you get that picture of my hand?". His looks very similar.
Dr. Haber heard a heart murmur, which is a sign also. We're waiting now for an appointment with the geneticist. Also, we're going to review what they did at River Hills before his surgery to see if they already did an echocardiogram.
I'm less optimistic than last Friday and I wasn't very optimistic then.
