Brittle bone disease, or osteogenesis imperfecta, looks like a scary thing to have. From the pictures I have seen, it does look as if osteogenesis imperfecta already manifests early on in childhood. I'm hoping to hear from you what the life expectancy is for people who have osteogenesis imperfecta? Is there any treatment for this condition?

I have a brother who was born with this, and he lives a very good life. He is 54 years old, married, and a dedicated teacher. There is no cure for this and from what I know, he was born with this. He had all his bones broken during delivery. He's fine, smart, and won't let this stop him.
