Raising Awareness: Palin puts special needs in public spotlight


I thought I would share this story with everyone. As many people know Papoose supports the Connecticut Down syndrome Congress as their charity this year.

My 3rd son Sam has Down syndrome. There is alot of buzz out there in the special needs parenting forums about Palin.

CDSC conference November 4th

Wow. What a great experience at the CDSC conference. Joining me where my mother, sister Tammy, Nieces:Bethany and Katie, Dear friend Amy and friends Sarah and her mom Eileen. Sam has a huge team routing for him learing all there is to know about Down syndrome. I learn something everyday more so than ever now with Sam in my life. I ran the silent auction which was a great success! Chris Burke, self advocate was there to encourage all the self-advocates attending and put on a nice show at lunch. Steve Riggio hosted the morning breakfast sesssion. He is the CEO of Barnes and Noble and has a Daughter with DS. I was in all the birth 2 3 classes. Everyone joining me split up a bit to get information in all areas.
Jack had a rough start this morning for school. He is missing his daddy who is working 7, 10 hr days for a few more weeks. Cole is doing great. Lots of homework but surviving.
Sam goes for his 6 month check up tomorrow. I will keep you posted on that!

Cheers.
