Here is an article about this little girl.

The sad thing is, so many Down's Syndrome kids don't even get a chance at life...these are the children the are OK to abort..you know, because they aren't normal.
As the mother mentioned in the article...so often when a Down's child is born, everything goes negative...he'll never be able to do this...there is no chance for her to do that.
Frankly, with early intervention and a lot of positive developmental work, many of not most Down's people can go on to have fairly normal lives.
My nephew has Down's syndrome, is severely autistic and...deaf. Wow, triple handicapped. Yet my brother and sister-in-law always worked with him, made sure he was a part of everything, and loved him and guess what? He does all right. He holds a steady job as a janitor, loves church, loves going out with friends, has a killer sense of humor and is just as much part of the fam life as anyone else. He now lives in a group home, not because my brother and sister "can't handle him" (as they were once told when he was a baby that they needed to put him in a institution because they wouldn't be able to "handle" him when he became older)...rather, he's there because, as any adult likes, he wants to be on his own. In the group home he has what is basically a studio apartment and he can either join the group for dinners and fellowship or hang out in his room. He really loves living there. Yes, there are professional care-givers there, folks who see to it that meds are regulated, that the people get to where they need to get and that they have the extra assistance needed, others there are far more handicapped than Rob. As for Rob, other than needing to check in and out so the staff knows where he is, he's free to come and go as he pleases.
Anyway...I hope little Taya can help dispel more misconceptions regarding Down's Syndrome. It just kills me, whenever I think of Rob that he is someone most folks think...yeah, abortion has its place.
