I KNOW!!!
As soon as i saw that video i just had to show my family and friends. It was so inspiration and i hope some people realise how good they have it with a healthy baby instead of winging about little things.

I've seen this before. I balled my eyes out watching it
I know someone that had a trisomy bubba that died about half an hour after he was born. So so sad.
