An Eagle Scout...... with Down syndrome.

Just wanted to pass this along to anyone interested. I know there are bunch of other parents on The DIS that have a child with DS, others may have a relative or a neighbor. Even those of you who know nothing about DS I think you'll find this a great story.

Its always nice to hear the "Up" side of DS...

Thanks for posting.

I am going to move this to the disABILITIES Community Board, where it will hopefully get more views.

Good for him. That is no easy accomplishment.

That made me cry happy tears. Speaking as a Boy Scout Mom (ds is Star), getting to Eagle is a HUGE accomplishment for any boy!
