Louis'mummy · Posted: May 21 2009, 3:33 PM Post subject: An Idea

Hi Adrienne
Louis is just coming up for a year and so nowhere near needing this for school etc. but I think it is a great idea which has given me another.
One thing I have found myself upset and frustrated about since Louis came along is people's ignorance of his condition, in particular, the older folks in our family. I find myself biting my tongue when they make inappropriate remarks or buy into the old cliches about Down's, and have been wondering how I can educate them without blowing my top.
I have decided to use you brochure as a template for a pamphlet. As Louis' birthday is coming up I think I might slip it into his party invitations and disguise it as a little journal of his first year.
Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration.

I've only been able to get this to open once, then the next time, it wouldn't come up; it was just a blank screen. I've tried copy and pasting the address. Any other ideas?

Try going to the main site home page. Then look for it under the "For Educators section" Maybe you will have better luck opening from this site. It is a PDF document and I am not sure if you can get it in another form from the site.

It's a PDF document so make sure your Adobe is up to date maybe? The link isn't bad it works... so it's something with your computer. I can email it do you Elisha, if you need me too. I have it scanned (but it's still a PDF) if that would help. PM me your email if you want.
