Andrea adds: Thanks for finding these stories and posts, Brigitte. I’m going to stop watching/reading them at work, though. Because everytime you post on this topic I cry. It’s not particularly professional. Maybe it’s because of these heroic parents. Maybe it’s because of the faces of those kids and adults, who are different, sure, but are they not people, too, and why can’t we as a society see that? Maybe it’s because I know that we, as a society, sanction killing these people and those on the screen are the lucky ones, simply for being alive.

Read about how our society desires to do away with the differently-abled.

‘I think we have to be honest about the fact that a determination of Down syndrome very early in a pregnancy is very likely going to be accompanied by pressure to terminate a pregnancy, and that’s been the experience of most of the families that are connected to the Canadian Down Syndrome Society.’

The story indicates we may soon be able to get rid of them earlier. Sooner. Faster. More expediently. Achtung.

Brigitte says wait a minute: This news story talks about such tests as “medical advancements”. But the only “treatment” I can see is termination. What kind of medicine is it that considers killing the patient earlier and more effectively “progress”?
