Today is World Down Syndrome Day

March 21, 2014 by Faye Sonier 1 Comment

Today is World Down Syndrome Day. While there is some debate regarding accurate statistics, the generally accepted rate is that 9 out of 10 babies screened positive for Down Syndrome are aborted.

From one mama:

There is something that pierces my soul. Something that stares me in the eyes every day. Every day I’m reminded: those who God has given life to are meant to live. I am one mom out of ten that knows the joy and beauty of having a child with Down syndrome. And I can tell you, my life is full. I love my son and I would not change him or choose a different life.

    My youngest daughter has Down Syndrome and she has enriched our lives in ways that I would never have dreamed of before her birth. Maybe the world needs more people with Down Syndrome, not fewer.
