The best way to understand Down syndrome - what it means to your baby and what it means to you - is to get the facts. for a condition that has for so long been surrounded in fear and darkness, the facts are far better than the myths. The worst enemy facing parents of babies with Down syndrome is ignorance. Before you do anything about your baby, learn about Down syndrome.
This chapter introduces Down syndrome to people who may never have heard of it before or who may know little about it. It addresses the basic questions parents have about Down syndrome and gives the foundation of knowledge you need to begin properly caring for your baby.
The technical terms in this chapter may be unfamiliar to you. The glossary at the back of this book includes all of the important terms. Use it to understand the terms you don´t yet know and refer back to it as often as you need.
No one will say that raising a child with Down syndrome is a picnic. The thousands of parents who have done it successfully will say that there is a lot of hard work and patience involved. But with today´s medical and educational advances, the myths and stereotypes of the past that so deprived children with Down syndrome are giving way to facts and realistic expectations. | Translation - Spanish
La mejor manera de entender el síndrome de Down, lo que significa para tu bebé y lo que significa para ti, es ir a los hechos. Al ser una condición que ha estado envuelta tanto tiempo en miedo y oscuridad, los hechos son por lejos mejor que los mitos. El peor enemigo que enfrentan los padres de bebes con síndrome de Down es la ignorancia. Antes de hacer o decidir algo con respecto a tu bebe, aprende acerca del síndrome de Down.
Este capítulo introduce el síndrome de Down a las personas que pueden no haberlo escuchado nunca antes o que conocen muy poco del mismo. Aborda las preguntas básicas que los padres tienen acerca del síndrome de Down y da el conocimiento fundamental que necesitas para empezar a cuidar adecuadamente a tu bebé.
Los términos técnicos en este capítulo le pueden resultar poco familiares. El glosario al final del libro incluye todos los términos importantes. Úselo para entender los términos que todavía no conoce y recurra a el tantas veces como lo necesite.
Nadie dirá que criar a un niño con síndrome de Down es un picnic. Los miles de padres que lo han hecho exitosamente dirán que involucra mucho trabajo arduo y paciencia.
