Lebanon Daily News (Lebanon, PA)


Wendy Smith never considered herself a crusader or someone who would stick out in a crowd. But that all changed, she said, when the system failed her daughter, Heather Sholley, who was born with Mosaic Down Syndrome.

I was 16 when I had Miracle. they told me that there might be a problem with her at birth. but to me she was perfect to me and I did not see anything wrong with her. She was born at temple hospital at 2:39am. she weight 7"11 and 21inch long. they told me to bring her back in 2 days because they wanted to run some test on her.

During a prenatal visit, my doctor offered the Down Syndrome screening test. I had tons of other blood work to be done, so I decided to have the screening test as well. I never thought it would come back positive. I was hysterical when it did. The next day, my husband and I went to see the doctor. He said based on the blood work, our chance of having a DS baby was 2.2%-my husband and I love to gamble and decided to take the odds.

Hello!  My name is Barb and I would like to tell you the story of the birth of my little miracle Jonas Robert Martz. Jonas was born on 11/01/00, just one week after my 36th birthday. On the night of Halloween, I had taken my 5 y.o. son trick or treating and had gotten him home and in bed. I began to think that I had not felt my unborn baby moving much that day and decided to sit down and pay close attention to how many movements I felt in an hour's time.

I was 23 years old when I became pregnant, and 24 years when Cody was born.  I had all the prenatal testing and  everything showed to be "normal".  Cody was born 10/02/95 full term by c-section. I had a spinal block so I was awake when He was born, I thought Cody looked "retarded" like some kids I had gone to school with, but my husband thought he looked fine, so I put my thought on the back burner.
