Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis can save tremendous grief and suffering for the baby and family. Eve Harow speaks with Rabbi David Fuld who is the founder of the Fuld Department of Genetics at Shaarei Tzedek Hospital in Jerusalem. Hundreds of genetic diseases afflict Ashkenazi Jewry alone and every ethnic group has their own inherited toxic mix. How can healthy babies be born within the guidelines of Jewish ‘Halacha’ law? Can we minimize the burden and tragedies?

Listen and spread this interview widely. If it saves even one life it’s as if the world was saved.

Oh, and Rabbi Fuld suggests you buy your mother flowers on your birthday.
