Down syndrome, Hidden Angels

Em has Down syndrome!

OK not front page news.

She's our daughter and we absolutely adore her!!! Her siblings adore her... except when she messes with Andrew's train tracks, then he's ready to put  a for sale on her!

We take her everywhere, she does everything, and we are so proud of her.  We celebrate on a daily basis, every new word, every accomplishment , no matter how small, it's celebrated BIG in our house.

Emmie knows she is loved. She is smothered daily by hugs and kisses, to the point of her actually putting her little hand up and saying "no". She is filled completely. Her life is perfect. She wants for nothing.

She has no fear of the dark, no issues with us leaving because she knows we always come back.  She goes to sleep peacefully.She eats when she wants, she always has a drink on hand. She is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. She has toys and clothes and someone to change her stinkie's as many times a day as needed (although that's getting pretty old and I wish she'd make friends with the potty)

And then there are the children in this video.  Just the opposite of Em. They have nothing. As completely filled that Em is , these children are as empty as can be. They want for everything. They are abandoned Angels. The children abandoned by their parents, hidden away, shunned by society. Why? Because they are just like Em.

A diagnosis of Down syndrome or any special need, in some countries,is just unacceptable. How Em is a Princess, these children have become throw aways. 

My Carina, that I advocate for unceasingly, is one of these children. She is facing life in a mental institution. She is just like Em. A beautiful four year old child. How can this child be worthless! How can her future be a mental institution!

How and WHY, should this child and every other child in my video have to endure such sadness, neglect, abuse, and even DEATH!

We need to get these children home!  Eventually, we need to start changing the hearts and minds of these countries so that parents are able to keep their children. But right now the ones who have been abandoned need to go home!

PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO. LET YOUR HEART BREAK FOR THESE KIDS, AND THEN PLEASE, PICK ONE AND DO SOMETHING FOR THAT CHILD! DONATE, PRAY, SPEAK,SHARE! PICK ONE AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY!! BECAUSE SOME OF THESE KIDS ARE NOT PROMISED TOMORROW! TOO MANY DIE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP THEM. I REFUSE TO LET CARINA BE ONE OF THEM. WHICH ONE WILL YOU HELP?
