World Down’s Syndrome Day

Yesterday we celebrated World Down’s Syndrome day, raising awareness.

The date for WDSD being the 21st day of the 3rd month, was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.

 

Thank you to everyone that donned bright, odd (and even Christmas) socks!
