My Child was Born with Down Syndrome

Martha opens up about her journey of parenting a child with Down syndrome. In this video, she shares her personal experiences, challenges, and the immense joy that comes with raising her extraordinary son. Whether you're a parent-to-be, a caregiver, or simply curious about the beautiful diversity in our world, this video aims to provide insight, support, and encouragement. Let's break down misconceptions and embrace the beauty that every child brings into our lives.
Down syndrome, also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. Typically, each person has two copies of this chromosome, but individuals with Down syndrome have three copies, leading to a total of 47 chromosomes instead of the usual 46.
