What is Down syndrome?

Down syndrome is a genetic disorder that is caused by the presence of an extra chromosome or a part of it.The cells of the human body have 46 chromosomes distributed in 23 pairs. One of their pairs determines the sex of the individual, the other 22 are numbered from 1 to 22 in the function of their decreasing size. People with Down syndrome have three chromosomes in pair 21 instead of the two that usually exist; therefore, this syndrome is also known as trisomy 21.
Personally, I am very happy because this American company chose this child this year, I have shared with many children with this specialty since in my project I chose to work with special children and the truth was a unique experience I was very much in love with. . they give you a lot of love and they teach you to give it, you learn things that you can not imagine, the truth is I'm very happy about this
