Meet Julia.

what to expect with a child with down syndrome




Julia loves to read books, play games on her iPad, listen to music, and play outside.

She laughs the hardest when she is roughhousing with her dad and brothers.

Julia’s mama wrote a note to parents who have just received the Down Syndrome Diagnosis.

what I wish I had known when I heard the words down syndrome

Dear parent facing the diagnosis of Down syndrome,

What you are feeling right now is perfectly normal, but you will soon realize there is nothing to fear.

Make contact with other families who have a child with Down syndrome. They will give you accurate, trustworthy information.

Your life is about to change for the better. You are going to fall so hard in love!

I wish I could be more like my daughter with Down syndrome…the way she sees her world and responds to it with such determination, love, and sensitivity.

Love,

Michelle
