To the editor:

In response to your article, The upside of Down Syndrome, Capital News, March 21.

Our differences shape our views. I was delighted to see the Upside of Down syndrome take the front page. Kayla Baldwin is a beautiful representation of the tremendous potential and value people with Down Syndrome have. Now that genetic testing is available in early pregnancy to determine any abnormality, I believe if any baby is viable, any difference should be just thatÎÚÑ»´«Ã½”a difference. Parents should only be offered the information that the baby is healthy (and maybe gender). Upon the babyÎÚÑ»´«Ã½™s arrival having medical and community resources offered and available is vital and necessary.
