Children with Down syndrome/Troka: Parents should not be ashamed, despite

Merita Troka, the mother of 25-year-old Gersi Troka, shared a valuable message today for all parents who, like her, face the difficulties of everyday life with children with Down syndrome. (  click for the full podcast )

As Merita emphasized in the podcast "Different, but Together" broadcast on CNA TV, parents should accept this diagnosis as the best way to care for their children, but also because times have changed and a range of treatments are now offered.

She also said that keeping children with Down syndrome at home is not a solution, despite the prejudices that families may face.

"I think he should accept it. Not think that the sky fell on his head. Times have changed. They are not the same as when I gave birth to Gersi. Then he should work with the child. Not be ashamed. Because this is very important. There are many parents, to be honest, who do not want to accept it or bring it out. But they keep it in the house. If we parents do not do it, even if they initially judge it. The parent is the one who must give direction to his child, ignoring the looks on the street. I made a pact with myself that I will not allow Gersi to be trampled and I wanted him to achieve a result, "said Troka./CNA
