Why I get teary when I see people with Down Syndrome

September 25, 2018 by Andrea Mrozek Leave a Comment

Because of moments like this, where a doctor advises a mother, five months pregnant with her wanted child, to abort because there is a diagnosis of Down Syndrome. Why would the doctor do that? For every person with Down Syndrome you see, there are eight or nine more who didn’t make it.

Most recently I saw a little girl of nine or ten, dressed in pink, holding a doll in one hand and her Dad’s hand in the other, crossing the street. They looked the opposite of miserable, wherever they were going.

I will never understand a doctor who “recommends” death as “treatment” for a condition with which people live happy, fulfilling lives.
