It is obvious that Down’s Syndrome kids get the “happy gene”.
They employ a few of them at my supermarket and it is always a pleasure to encounter them.
The young family that I know with a Down’s Syndrome child was told that the markers were there and she needed to hurry to get the abortion. They couldn’t believe she wouldn’t.
He has so much love in him and everyone loves him back. When he was little he really fell in love with my husband and my son and would sit in their laps for hours and cry if his mother tried to take him.
In my weekly Bible study, two of our older members-(widow & widower) who met each other & married recently...
..each has a Down's syndrome adult child...one in his 30's and one in his 50's....
They are quiet, respectful, sweet, helpful and go with their parents on 'mission trips' and work very hard at what they can do.
They are lovely and so are the parents!
“..they couldn’t believe she wouldn’t.”
Take heart, there are still the loving and compassonate in this world. I have two daughters-—one who has a two year old and one expecting a baby in October. when asked if they wanted THAT test, they each replied, “Now just what in the hell would I do with that information if I knew? Commit murder? We’re pretty plain spoken here in Texas.
Sometimes, God lets us know we raised them right.
