Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online, for our walk on the 3rd September 2005. We will walk around Lloyd Park in Croydon which is about 5km.
My son Cameron was born 12th August 2004, Cameron has Down's Syndrome. We wasn't aware of this until after he was born. It was a shock and we went through a range of emotions including sadness, grief (for the child we were expecting) denial, anger also blame (myself in particular). I was ignorant about what Down syndrome actually was until the Down's Syndrome Association sent me facts and news letters. They are such a huge help to thousands of new parents and also to people who have Down's Syndrome themselves. I think these charitys desperately need our help and i for one want to do my best to help them raise funds and awareness, then hopefully some of the ignorance to this syndrome will be erradicated from this world. Cameron is just like any other baby he just has a little extra thats all.
My face may be different
But my feelings the same
I laugh and I cry
And I take pride in my gains
I was sent here among you
To teach you to love
And god in the heavens
Looks down from above
To him I'm no different
His love knows no bounds
It's here among you
In cities and towns
That judge me by standards
That man has imparted
But the family he's chosen
Will help me get started
For I'm one of his children
So special and few
That Came here to learn
The same lessons as you
That Love is acceptance
It must come from the heart
We all have the same purpose
Though not the same start
The Lord gave my life
To love and embrace
And I'll do it as you do
Just at my own pace.
