World Down Syndrome Day 2013
March
21st, is World Down Syndrome Day. This day was selected because Down
syndrome or Trisomy 21 happens when there are 3 copies of the 21st
chromosome. In addition to wearing your DSAF limited edition WDSD
t-shirts, to celebrate and to help raise awareness please wear socks…BUT
NOT JUST ANY SOCKS…brightly colored socks, mismatched socks, long
socks, printed socks, 1 sock…maybe even 3 socks (or EXTRA socks) for 3
chromosomes. Just so long as they are socks which are on display and
people will ask you about. Then you can take the opportunity to tell others about your favorite individual with Down syndrome.
Hope to see lots of brightly colored socks tomorrow!
