Healthy adults are struggling to get proper healthcare everywhere in this world, even when they're healthy enough to advocate for themselves. Do we really think someone with Down syndrome Is going to be just okay in a world like this? Health inequality is real, and patients with Down syndrome are most susceptible to it. |
Yeah if I knew I was going to have a baby with Downs, I would honestly terminate. Then again, I don't plan of having kids anyway cos I have a different hereditary condition. (Autism)
Here in Australia, and in the UK, 90% of diagnosed Downs pregnancies are terminated. In Iceland, the number is near 100%, and in Denmark it's 98%.
