Nothing down about Down syndrome!

From heartbreak to happiness

When we received Alice's Down syndrome diagnosis shortly after her birth, we were heartbroken. We only knew the outdated stereotypes about DS and questioned our ability to care for her. However, once we learned the truth about DS and just how great life can be for those that are chromosomally enhanced, we realized the precious gift we had been given. Ever since then, it's been "up syndrome!" Alice is 2 now and doing amazing! She's happy, healthy, smart, and capable of anything.
