Thanks for using healthcaremagic.I understand your concern.
Brief answer:Yes,you may have chances for a healthy kid.
Detailed answer:
Unfortunately there is no treatment for chromosomal abnormalities inherited to the fetus currently,which are believed to be caused by increased maternal(mother's) age >35 years usually.The best thing available is screening for those abnormalities early which helps to get prepared mentally about the outcome or to consider early termination to avoid risks related to mother.I would advise you to get psychologically prepared to understand about the possible risks with genetic counselling.Hope this helps you.Take care.
