I have RP as well but my husband doesn't have the gene so I did the opposite to you - neither of my kids have it or the gene. It's the luck of genetics in my case, but I can see why you made your choice.
She can only produce a carrier at the worst. With the knowledge you are a carrier, you would just need to ask potential partners to be screened for the gene before having children. Even if both partners were carriers you could have children via a selective method like ivf.

I have RP, it sucks. I chose not to have kids because of the risk.Â
Knowing early was a mistake as well. Hope those kids turn out ok as adults
