We are a group of friends who have come together because we share the common bond of caring for someone who has Trisomy 21. We are here to share therapy tips, medical issues, laughs, accomplishments and yes, even frustrations. We embrace what Trisomy 21 has brought into our lives. We feel that it has taught us to appreciate the true meaning of life. We count our children as blessings! We will fiercely protect them and fight for their lives to be valued just as all other peoples' are. We share our pictures, our stories and our hearts here not only to provide friendship and support for each other, but also in the hopes that others will open their minds and their hearts to our unique children and, in turn, make a better world for everyone.

Looking for a family to adopt my child

I am 31 yrs old and almost 35 weeks pregnant. I found out tonight that we will be having a baby boy with DS. We are strongly considering adoption. I will be going into labor soon so baby is on its way. We are desperate to find a good family for our little boy. Can anyone supply me with names or suggestions of a good, loving family?

to rsteele@zoomtown.com. She has a list of homestudy ready families and can help you locate an agency or what ever help you might need. She is also a wonderful person to speak with in general to even understand your feelings and help you through your side of the process.

Hi Melanie,

I will be praying for you over the next few days as you make the right decision for you and your baby. I'm glad you've been in touch with Robin Steele...she will be an excellent resource for you if you decide to place your baby for adoption.

I belong to several other great DS support groups and would be happy to provide the links to them if you decide to keep your baby. Feel free to email me privately if you'd like more information about them.

Praying,
Patrice, mama to:

~Jared-18
~Jason-17
~Janae-15
~Jalyn-13
~Jamye-11
~Jacob-9
~Jaden-5 (DS, adopted)
~Luke-9mo. (DS, adopted)
