Before I was born, God was already working in my life. In 1992, my mother was pregnant with me. She was told that I had down syndrome. As hard as that was for her, she took it and I guess you could say, accepted it. Many things were brought up about abortion and adoption, but God wanted me in this world. He had a plan for me, just like He does with every human He creates. When I was born, the doctors could not believe the miracle God did. I was perfectly fine. Every test that a human could do was nothing compared to what God had in mind. Know that no matter what comes at you, God can fix it. He has a plan. Jeremiah 29:11

Glad to hear that your parents made it through and decided to allow God work His miraculousness on all your lives!! He is just awesome!!

God is very awesome! I just wish that people could see that God does have a plan for our lives no matter what happens. I just wish we could all stay on track and not stray from the path and take detours.

You are full of doubt and unbelief. You are going a very wrong way.

wolfywolfs- I know that your brother having down syndrome is not exactly your thought of a blessing from God, but let me put it to you in a different perspective. God can work through your brother probably more than He can any of us. He will use your family's strength to be a blessing to the whole community. Later on down the road, God might send some people your way so that you can help them through it. I know it seems hard, but your brother may eveninspire the doctors and nurses. I hope this has helped you understand a little bit more of what is going on.

THIS IS SO TRUE. My mum was told by her doctor i was ment to be down syndrome to and she cried.. They tried to make her take medication or have an abortion but my mum being a faithful lady said no to both and just prayed about it. My mum said she cried when i came out and was completly fine.. it just goes to show that even before we were born the devil tried to attack us!! tried to take our lives.. WHy because we are going to live our lives for the creator and lord of all lords.. and satan must know that we are going to impact people and bring gods lost sheep back to him.. All i can say is satan can eat my shorts haha

Haha! THat is so true....mmy mother was scheduled to look at Down Syndrome children, they tried to get her to have an abortion and everything, but praise the Lord, she said no. I do wonder if this means we carry a gene related to Down Syndrome and that our children could might possibly have it.......
