I was just wondering if any of you were on Facebook. I am a member and wanted to let you know there is a group out there called I heart (picture of a heart) someone with Down Syndrome. I haven't posted anything on there yet but there were quite a few good posts out there with lots of good information. Just like here, it was comforting to see so many people going through the same struggles and challenges. There are allot of Down Syndrome groups on Facebook but this is the only one I've checked out so far.

" Hi Bonnie-
I typed Down Syndrome in the search box on the top right of my home page(I think) and all the groups came up. I thought it came up on the first page but I can't remember. I just looked at the site to see if there was a link I could send you but it doesn't look like there is. I'm new to that site so I haven't discussed anything out there. Just looking around. It looks like a really good site though and good message board too. "

" I don't know why but I still cannot find it! I am searching Downs Syndrome looking for a group called "I heart" and there should be a thumbnail photo of a heart?
Thanks,
Bonnie "
