This is my incredible friend Adelle. She is one of my favourite people in the world and also happens to be one of the strongest, kindest and funniest people I know. Adelle always approaches life with a positive attitude -which is something that I have always found so inspiring. I learn a lot from her.
Adelle has a gorgeous daughter named Ariel who is 16 months old. She is also pregnant with her second daughter, due in Novemeber. She and her husband found out at their 20 week ultrasound that their unborn baby girl has Down Syndrome, or Trisomy 21. Adelle has handled this unexpected and often overwhelming news in typical, inspiring Adelle-style. Since then they have learned some other scary things about their baby's health, but she had remained endlessly positive and upbeat through everything.
October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month, and in honour of her baby girl, and, to raise awareness for fairness and inclusion, Adelle is participating in the 31 for 21 Challenge where she will be blogging for all 31 days of this month. I would love it if you would check out her blog here. I think that, like me, you will be amazed and inspired by wonderful friend.
