I hope my daughters will be able to continue their friendship with their cousins and friends as years go on.
It’s great we can all connect with friends and family via technology.
We share funny stories to lift each other’s mood. We also share our worries. We seek comfort and give each other virtual hugs. We think about each other.
‘Don’t just tell people that you love them-show them.And that means showing up. It means being truly present in the lives of the people you care about’ (Michelle Obama).
(Thanks friend F for giving me this book of quotes for my birthday.)
Dear friends, of you . If I am ever slacking as a friend, please just give dataset me a virtual kick in the b***, and shout ‘WAKE UP’!!
I have chosen the above title as that was the theme for this years’s Down Syndrome Awareness Week (16th March to 22nd March).
‘All people with Down’s syndrome should have full participation in decision making about matters relating to or affecting their lives.’-DSA UK
This theme is particulalry relevant to our daughter K this year as she finishes school in June and has chosen the college she would like to attend. College would be 3 days. I was in the midst of looking around various clubs that she could access over the summer and the days she isn’t at college.
She is also keen to get various work experience and hopefully get into employment.
Families of people with disabilities have been campaigning for the voices of their children to be heard. As like every other young person, people with a learning disability are capable of making choices , whether it be what they would like to eat, what they would like to wear, what they choose as a hobby , to making big lifestyle decisions in relationships, independent living and employment.
