Down's syndrome

Types: There are three main types of Down syndrome:
Trisomy 21: This is the most common type, accounting for 95% of cases. It occurs when there is an extra copy of chromosome 21 in each cell of the body.
Translocation Down syndrome: This type occurs in about 3% of cases. It happens when an extra part or a whole extra chromosome 21 is attached to a different chromosome.
Mosaic Down syndrome: This is the rarest type, affecting about 2% of cases. It occurs when some cells in the body have an extra copy of chromosome 21, while others do not.
Myth 1: People with Down syndrome are always severely intellectually disabled.
Fact: While individuals with Down syndrome may have intellectual disabilities, the degree varies widely from person to person. Many individuals with Down syndrome lead fulfilling lives, attend school, hold jobs, and participate in their communities. With appropriate support and resources, they can achieve significant milestones and contribute meaningfully to society.
Myth 4: People with Down syndrome cannot live independently.
Fact: With appropriate support and opportunities, many individuals with Down syndrome can live semi-independent or fully independent lives. This may include living in their own homes, holding jobs, managing their finances, and participating in social activities. Supportive services and community resources play a crucial role in facilitating independence..
Myth 6: People with Down syndrome cannot learn or achieve academically.
Fact: Individuals with Down syndrome have the ability to learn and make academic progress with appropriate educational support and interventions. Many attend mainstream schools and receive inclusive education tailored to their individual needs. With early intervention programs and specialized teaching methods, they can develop essential skills and reach their full potential.
Myth 8: People with Down syndrome have a short life expectancy.
Fact: With advances in medical care and treatment, life expectancy for individuals with Down syndrome has increased significantly over the years. Many people with Down syndrome now live well into their 50s, 60s, and beyond. Access to quality healthcare, early intervention, and supportive services are crucial for promoting health and longevity.
It's essential to challenge misconceptions and stereotypes about Down syndrome to promote understanding, acceptance, and inclusion. By recognizing the diverse abilities, strengths, and contributions of individuals with Down syndrome, we can create a more inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Let's celebrate diversity and embrace the uniqueness of each individual, regardless of their abilities or differences.

Remembering Dear Dr. Smitha: A Bundle of Talent and Grace
We are deeply grateful to Mr. Subbaiah for his generous donation in memory of his beloved wife, Dr. Smitha. Dr. Smitha was truly a jack of all trades—an exceptional artist, a skilled seamstress, a brilliant cook, a passionate gardener, and above all, a dedicated doctor. Her talents knew no bounds, and her legacy continues to inspire us.
Last year, Subbaiah donated an embroidery machine in her honour, and we are delighted to share the beautiful work that has been created with it. From intricately embroidered towels to delicately crafted nighties and many other wonderful products, each piece is a testament to Dr. Smitha’s incredible spirit and the lasting impact she has had on all of us.
This work is a tribute to the memory of a truly remarkable woman. Thank you, Subbaiah, for helping us keep Dr. Smitha’s memory alive through this meaningful contribution.
- Remembering Dear Smitha!
