My coworker and I were watching this at work yesterday, and we were both tearing up! She's pregnant, so she's got that whole "hormone thing" going on. Smiley Wink I'm just a big ol' softy. Love the story!!

I saw this the other day. It made me cry. How wonderful.

Re: Student With Down Syndrome Accepted To College

I thinks it's an awesome idea. That particular college offers masters and advanced degrees in special education but since it's such a win win (most disabled are lost after they age out of high school at age 21) that maybe other schools will get some incentive to follow suit? A college campus would be a much better environment than a factory setting doing simple factory work making boxes and the like.
