Normal what is that anyway? Normal is a setting on the washing machine. Who is normal? I am certainly not normal, I may not have special needs that are clearly visible but if I did would that defy who I am? Would I be considered abnormal? Would I be tossed asside being stuck in a crib 24 hrs a day. What about minor disabilites like hand deformities or ones that need medication? I take Magneisum everyday cause I was born with a VERY RARE thing that makes my hands shaky. (sorry I don't know the official name of it) Sometimes I wish I did not have to remember to take it everyday, but then I wonder if I had been born in another country would I be tossed asside just cause of my hands being shaky? My hands luckily do not shake as much as they use to thanks to the medicine & my hands getting stronger. (likely all the knitting I do lol) Sarah just wants to be like anyone else, her Down Syndrome or social phobia does not defy her & why should they? She hardly wants to watch anything having to do with DS as she wants to be NORMAL like anyone else & not have her disability defy her. These kids ALL DESERVE TO HAVE A NORMAL LIFE & WILL SPEND THE REST OF THEIR DAYS IN A INSTITUION IF NOT ADOPTED BY THEIR 16TH BIRTHDAY!! IF YOUR HOMESTUDY APPROVED PRETTY PLEASE CONSIDER ONE OF THESE OLDER KIDS! YES THEY MIGHT BE CHALLENGING BUT AREN'T THEY WORTH IT?
