Ambassadors 2021 Volume 6!


 Introducing...


Flynn

Flynny is 4 year old. He loves cars and his little brother Riley they are best friends. He is obsessed with bluey and laughing and playing. He’s learnt how to sign I love you the way we do. He can walk, run, and can now even dress himself! He is so loving and caring and brings happiness into everyone’s life he meets. Flynny loves running and hide and seek especially!

We are so passionate about inclusion and t21! To make it even better Flynny was born on world Down syndrome day! We are the ‘lucky few’ and would love for Flynny to share in this opportunity to be an ambassador for celebrate t21 and make some more beautiful friends.


Ella

Ella is 2 and a half years old and the absolute light of our lives and everyone who she meets. Ella is our rainbow baby, her big brother Brooklyn watches over her in heaven & she also has a little brother Hudson who she adores so much.


Ella did not have an easy start to life, spending the first 3 months of her life in hospital, open heart surgery & recovery for months. Ella always has had a strength, resilience, patience and courage about her that was evident since she was born.

Ella has a smile that lights up our lives, she is becoming sassy, cheeky and loves dancing to music and playing the drums in particular! She has recently learned lots of sign language and uses this to communicate with her teachers at kindy & us at home.

We are pretty sure when Ella grows up she will be a dancer, singer or actress as she is super outgoing!

I would love Ella to be an ambassador for Celebrate T21 because it has had such a a posture impact on so many families I know, learning about Down Syndrome & how amazing it is when you are blessed to have or know someone who has T21. Ella loves the camera, loves photos & I think is a perfect example of how incredible someone with Down Syndrome can be.


Adia

Adia is the middle of 5 children and is also a twin. She is sassy and stubborn and determined which has already helped her to face many challenges including 5 strokes and 4 brain surgeries.

She loves her family, singing and dancing, horse riding, surfing, riding her bike and going to school.

We have loved being a part of Celebrate T21 this year and feel that there is so much more work to do in advocating and normalizing T21 and would love to continue to be a part of it.


Kiara

I would like to be an Celebrate T21 ambassador again this year because I had so much fun last year. I loved all the meet ups, photo shoots and raising awareness of Down Syndrome.

I love to show the T21 Community how amazing it can be living with Down Syndrome. Love Kiara Risku

Letters to Me: Dear Melanie

Dear New Mumma, Earlier that day, you were elated at seeing your beautiful baby during your 20 week ultrasound, he was the most gorgeous little boy. His older sisters sat in awe watching him. Now as you sit in the obstetricians office he tells you they think there is something wrong with your baby! He needs you to go and have an urgent ultrasound to confirm what they think! He tells you there is a huge risk of miscarriage but doesn’t tell you that you have a choice not to do it. All the elation from earlier is replaced with fear, worry and sadness. What is so wrong with this gorgeous little boy kicking away and how could you survive if you lost him! The amino was the most horrible thing you had to endure. Fortunately neither you or your little boy moved and the procedure was deemed a success. The next couple of days you are stressed. You get some cramping but luckily your little boy was not giving up. A couple of days later you get a call from your doctor. You can tell by the tone of h...

Letters to Me: Dear Claire

To Claire, Me, when I first received the diagnosis that my unborn son would be born with Down syndrome. Hi I’m not going to ask how you are because I know exactly how you are. You have just been told by your doctor that your baby would be born with a triplicate copy of his 21st chromosome, meaning that your unborn baby will have Down syndrome. You also have found out that your baby will be a boy, a boy that you had been hoping for. I know that right now your terrified. This was not even on your radar and certainly was not part of the future you had been planning. Your scared about what this means for you, for your husband and most importantly for your 3 beautiful children, Bella, Charlie, and Brandon. I wont lie, the next few months are going to be hard. You have just faced a new diagnosis and your about to experience new medical terminology, new life expectations and new goals for yourself, your family and for your baby, pretty much new everything. During this time your friends, your ...
