It must nice for all those living with Down's syndrome to know that their condition is justified as a reason for killing them by many people. Who else should we kill? Maybe we should check Hitler's advice on who should live and who should die. Why restrict it to unborn Down's syndrome people? Doctors deliberately destroying lives makes me shudder whenever I think about it.

Good Morning Marie:

My wife and I have 5 children, our fourth was born with Downs. He will be 3 years old at the end of this month. I will never know the answer to why we were "chosen," but we thank God every day for sending him to us, because he has made us much better parents and made his brothers and sisters much better siblings.

Unfortunately there are people with an "elitist" attitude, who mistakenly think that these children are inferior. One day they will awaken to the realization of really how wrong they are. Downs children have an incredible gift of unconditional love and being completely non judgmental.

I hope I can someday achieve those same gifts.

Regards,

BobP
