Ave Maria!

Leticia Velasquez and Eileen Haupt, co-founders of Keep Infants with Down Syndrome discuss what it is like to raise a child with Down Syndrome and what it has added to their lives and to their families. The benefits they received include greater patience, close bonds with their special family members and a new appreciation of the common gifts of life like walking and talking and the many other hings that take a longer time for Downs children to learn.  They also learn how much children with disabilities can overcome difficulties and become productive, functioning members of society and even bring special talents. Both mothers relate how much religious devotion their Down children have.

Ave Maria!
