People with Down Syndrome have inspiring messages for mum to be

You won’t want to cry, but you probably will.

EVERY NEW MUM wants to know what to expect when she’s expecting, so when one mum-to-be discovered that her baby was going to be born with Down Syndrome she decided to write a letter.

The letter made its way to CoorDown, Italy’s National Coordination of Associations for People with Down Syndrome, and they decided to respond in a very special way ahead of World Down Syndrome day on March 21st.

CoorDown teamed up with advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi to produce Dear Future Mom, a heart-warming video reply from 15 people who are living with the chromosomal disorder.

Seriously now, who on earth is chopping all those onions?
