Paul's Story: A Life With Down Syndrome

By Lorraine DeForge

I decided to write this book because I wanted people to know that having a baby with Down syndrome is not the end of the world.

Paul's start in life was very scary, my pregnancy was difficult, and he was born premature. We weren't given much hope for his survival, or that he would have any kind of life if he did, but we wanted him to be with us for however long that would be.

He ended up having a very productive life. He worked, learned to use public transportation, moved into a supervised apartment, and was married to his Down syndrome wife for twenty-five years before he passed away.

This book is about how Paul was truly a special gift to his dad, myself, and all his brothers and sisters.
