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.

Response to everything!

 

Hi! I have to say that I believe that Garrett got so much out of his therapies. He started with Physical therapy once a week when he was 2 months old. We also had him in speech therapy and occupational therapy later on as he got older (he's 4 now). He started walking when he was 2 and he's really starting to talk a lot now. We did do a lot of sign language with him and we started it with him young, even though he didn't sign back right away, he was still taking it all in and learning it and it made a huge difference with him being able to communicate with us. The therapies can be overwhelming at first; I know there were times when I hated having people coming to my house and telling us what to do...but looking back I see what a difference it made!
