If you are worried about having a child with Down's syndrome please take time to read this

[TeeCee]

I have a child with Down's syndrome and this is the best article I've ever read, it jsu says it all:

Please read

I saw this yesterday and was going to post a link to it. As I was reading it I was wishing I had seen it when I was being pushed towards amnio in my last pregnancy (I didn't have the amnio - Mumsnet saw to that...) - I think that in that moment of my life it would have been a wonderful thing to read.

I read it yesterday - I don't know what everyone on the train thought as I started blubbing

I remember you posted something very similar once TeeCee.

What a fantastic article! I love the last line - not pitied, envied. Says it all, really.

Wonderful TC.
Tremendously inspiring.

I shall print it out for all the people I work with and for as a salt in field of learning disabilities.

Thank you.

Well done Moondog.

Pollyana - yes I have said very, very similar things to him but as I said in my email to him today he's said it all so much better.

He just said it all so, so perfectly. It's all exactly how I think and feel, exactly.

I love him for feeling the same way as I do and putting it so well.

Think he's done a great job in dispelling soem of the fears and ignorance out there with this feature.

I read this thanks to the link and it brought tears to my eyes.
Wonderful article,

A wonderful article. Felt emotional reading it. Was humbled by the guy's complete honesty.

I read it yesterday and thought of you and your dd.

And I think you do yourself down.

What a writer.

Oh yes

Wonderful article.
