Ping for life.
What a great story! Roy Rogers and Dale Evans had a Down Syndrome daughter who was the love of their lives, they wrote a book “Angels Unaware” which is worth reading.
Down’s Syndrome people are just that...Angels.
I dare say that figure is more like 99%.
Amen, is right. I have a wonderful niece with Downs who is beloved by our whole clan. Until your life has been touched by one of these precious people, you can’t understand the loves they are. The Palins are blessed and they know it.
We have several friends with Downs kids, and they are all like the one on the plane. Anyone that would abort a Downs child (or any child for that matter) is a selfish egotistical monster.
We should all follow his example.
Beautiful!!! Well said indeed!!!!
I read that book when I was little girl. This article reminded me of it.
BTTT!
WHAT?
I also read “Angels Unaware” when I was a young girl and it made an impression on me.

Great article. Years ago my best friend died when we were 9. Her mother had another baby about a year after her death and the baby was diagnosed with Down Syndrome. I was a mere child myself but was involved with her from day one.
When she was about 3 I was babysitting for her and trying to get her toy telephone to work but was having a hard time of it. She grabbed it away from me giving me a look like how dumb can you be...and turned it on with no problem. I just giggled. That moment will always be with me...as she has humbled me time and time again over the years but always with a smile and a kind touch.
Sorry...I just saw that quote and wondered!
Life bump!
