Parent Perspectives
When our son with Down syndrome was born three years
ago, my husband and I were devastated. We called our
Parent to Parent program, which supplied us with
invaluable information, as well as sending us a support
couple to talk with. It was important to us to meet with the
couple not just the mother since my husband takes as
much responsibility for caring for our children as I do. Also
important was that we were matched with a couple whose
child had also been through open heart surgery (our son
had major defects). The couple that our Parent to Parent
program sent us were such warm, optimistic, normal
people, they gave us hope.
