Was at my sisters place yesterday, talking about the upcoming program on 21st March about Down Syndrome on the International Down Syndrome Day. Am supposed to be the MC but haven't been able to clearly think how to manage the stuff. Have to work on that.
There is really no statistics and information about the numbers or any thing that could define its condition in Nepal. I think what she has started may go on to help a lot of people still reluctant to hide the fact that they have a baby suffering from Downs. Even though Down Syndrome Association of Nepal has still a long way to go, to come up with ways to help the many people suffering from Downs, its initiative is well worthy of a praise.
My cousin is in many ways a typical 7 years old, he plays all the time and is normal in all the sense except for the fact he i suffering from Downs. Downs itself is not a disease that is contracted or that can be seen beforehand or even cured but is a genetic variation that can cause so much trouble and pain not only to the person suffering from it but also it brings some sort of grief for the people who care about those suffering from Downs. But Downs should not be taken as a handicap, this is one fact that many people fail to realize and in turn destroy the lives of some innocent. People suffering from Downs ca lead a normal life and go on to settle down and live happily after. Sure, it may take more time than a normal person to accomplish all that but IT WILL HAPPEN!! If people only knew that this thing can be tackled and can be overcome than that would probably make so many peoples' life better and truly give them what they rightfully deserve.
