Answer 50%:

Probably, a 50 percent chance

Step-by-step explanation:

The Punnett square below makes it very clear that at each birth there will be a 25% chance that you having a normal homozygous (AA) child, a 50% chance of a very healthy heterozygous (Aa) carrier child like you and your mate, and a 25% chance that a homozygous recessive (aa) child who could probably will eventually die from this
