Re: Downs Syndrome Weathergirl.

So can I have a cuddle then?....

Re: Downs Syndrome Weathergirl.

Only with my husbands permission ! Mind he was up for selling me earlier, long story no one needs to hear but I think he might have meant it

Re: Downs Syndrome Weathergirl.

I know...he phoned me.

Re: Downs Syndrome Weathergirl.

And me!

The bidding is top secret though.....

Re: Downs Syndrome Weathergirl.

We have great friends who have a son lovely lad I have written about him before.

At times he can be very challenging as he is in his forties and robust so I tend when he is over here to take him to his favourite toy shop so they can have some respite. It takes time for him to feel comfortable with people, places surrounding.

I never treat him any different from anyone else and one day the shop owner did not have a favourite toy a cuddly green dynausor.

The shop keeper was getting quite alarmed so I shouted at the top on my voice. For goodness sake name you are doing my head in!

I was met with the biggest of smiles and a huge hug and reply Sue what you like. He said I am not like the others you know. I said what others he said you know the others. They are all mad.

He has a part time job and because of my friends age he needs to find a flat and feel secure in his surroundings. He does not like any change whatsoever anything moved out of place or any toys lost. His suitcase is full of toys on arrival. I am usual first port of call. Toast a cuppa and cheese cut into certain size portions. He looks at me and says I know they are all the same size.

His parents are now quite elderly but fear the day something happens to them.

These are the people I think are real hero's and need some sort of recognition. It's a 24 hour a day job.

Life is unfair at times my friends parents both being deaf and dumb too. She until recently holding down a full time job and her son 3 days a week. He proudly announced to us one day I got a job you know.

My response. What you like ☺

I have met a few DS kids and once they get to trust you, they are indeed great company and they have a wicked SOH also.
