DAY 6: DOWN SYNDROME AWARENESS 2023 BY THE ENGRACED ONES

The days of hiding away our children or siblings with a disability are over!

Siblings
Parents
Teachers

I’m calling everyone out now!

Advocacy starts from your small corner to the ends of the earth. In order words, ‘think global but act local’. Remember, Scripture says, ‘He sent a word to Jacob and it lighteth up Israel’. We can’t afford to be silent advocates. With people like Abigail and a self advocate like Mimi, the discrimination of persons with disability with become old fashioned!

DAY 2: DOWN SYNDROME AWARENESS 2023 BY THE ENGRACED ONES

In Ireland abortion of these pregnancies is highly recommended. Now we have literate adults with DS like Heidi (pls follow her on social media) making a strong case to end the abortion of such pregnancies.

That’s why I asked the question last night, if you knew you were carrying a special child would you have opted to keep the pregnancy?
