Life a Burden? After-birth abortion outrage sparked in UK

World Down Syndrome Day!

Happy World Down Syndrome Day to our KIDS families!  I am enjoying seeing so many videos and postings on Facebook and on the web by parents of children with Down syndrome and advocacy groups.  Leticia is attending the U.N. event in honor of WDSD.  I cannot wait to hear about her experience there.

Here is a speech our KIDS friend, Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers, made in the House of Representatives today.

Leticia's column in Anchorage Alaska paper

A few months ago I wrote a response to a mother in Alaska who feared that research to help improve the lives of those with Down syndrome implied rejection of her precious child. I reassured her in this column that the opposite is true, we support research because we love our children and want the best for them.
