October is Down Syndrome Awareness month, I personally prefer Down Syndrome Acceptance Month….I think the greater population is ‘aware’ that there are people who have Down Syndrome….but there needs to be more acceptance.
I believe acceptance early on in a persons life who has Down syndrome. Way back to those who choose to have the ante natal screening.
Acceptance needs to start when an antenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome is given, acceptance from obstetricians to present more than the option of a termination.
Acceptance that this is a unique life, and will completely turn your life around, for the better.
I couldn’t imagine life without our Veronika, or her brothers Jordan and Jakob
Veronika certainly is changing perceptions on people with Down syndrome in and around our local community and further.
Continue to share our journey of acceptance and inclusion 💛💙
