What Life Is Like for a Mom and Her 3 Kids with Down Syndrome



Introducing the Thomson children! All three children have Trisomy 21, the most common form of Down syndrome.

I met their mother through our online Down syndrome community. We had an instant connection, despite the fact we live in America and Australia, respectively — when you have a child with Down syndrome, you receive automatic acceptance to a very special club!

When I saw her three beautiful children for the first time, I knew her story had to be shared with the world and, happily, she agreed.

“Calli (11): Loves electronics and anything to do with doctors, hospitals, ambulances. She has the biggest heart when it comes to helping other children. She would give the coat off her back, shoes off her feet and food off her plate to a child if they needed it.

“Montana (8): She’s a tomboy! She loves playing in the dirt, working on cars and fishing. She is an adrenaline junky! She would be the child at an amusement park running to all the rides because of the thrill, and the faster, ‘scarier’ rides would be her favorite.
