I had a positive Down's test and did not terminate. I had a friend with the same result who did. I'm grateful we both had that choice. Those who are outraged by this should start by adopting one of the thousands of awesome Down's kids awaiting a home:https://awaa.org/adopt/waiting-children/ …

Lord knows I'm in no position to judge either! I was doing the same - so many are unaware how many wonderful children with Down's Syndrome are awaiting loving homes.
