“We were blessed with Abhi on August 2008. The day we had him, he had changed our life forever as many other families have also felt inside. He stayed in NICU for 2 weeks and then he got the support from "Birth to Three" services. Those days helped us really shape our expectation on him.

As a parent, the school system here gave us a lot of hope for him. At the same time, many of the parents have helped us, would like to take this opportunity to remember thankfully, along with that CT Down Syndrome Congress and community resources also gave us some room to breathe.

Generally Abhinav likes listening music, news is his new favorite. Otherwise he is a quiet person with naughtiness here and there.

In addition to everything, when we learned about 21 Strong, it opened doors to which lead us to nice events that Abhi needed and made him be a part of it.
​
Our hearty gratitude to every single opportunity we have crossed so far.”
