I was blessed with a niece that was born with downs syndrome about 2 years ago. She only lasted 4 months in this world but in that time she taught a lot of us about faith, strength and courage. Even though my sister knew very early on the baby would have downs syndrome and other issues she still decided not to terminate the birth. She wanted to let the kid have a chance. It was very sad but a huge life lesson for a lot of us.
