\u201cI haven\u2019t had any bad experiences having Down\u2019s syndrome. I think it\u2019s because of my personality. The only challenge I have faced was maybe people signing to me and talking to my mum instead of me, until realising that I can communicate and that I am just like them, maybe just slower at learning some things.\u201d
There needs to be more positivity out there and people should give us a chance and not be so ignorant.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s her parents sixth child, and according to them, there is no trick here, they have always expected the same from their all children. \u201cWe never looked at the limits, but at all the things she could do. And if she didn’t know something, we worked out the solution together. We were in just a little despair in the hospital, but then the midwife came to us and said,’Why are you so nervous? You already have a child, right? Then you know how to raise them. \u201dAnd she was right. Raising a kid with down syndrome was just like all the others. It’s just even more wonderful. \u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
