69. Guest Interview with Abby Green - The Miracles of Down Syndrome

In this heartfelt and enlightening episode, we explore the theme of relinquishing control. Our guest, Abby, is the co-host of the Herself Podcast and a mother of three. She describes herself as having a Type A personality. Little did she know that her third child would put this trait to the test. Following two smooth pregnancies, Abby discovers she is expecting again. Her excitement turns to concern when the 20-week anatomy scan reveals medical complications for her baby. Despite the weight of this news, Abby embraces the truth that their child will be deeply loved. Owen, born with Down syndrome, brings a unique light into their lives. Abby candidly shares the joys of parenting a child with Down syndrome, highlighting the lessons she's learned about patience and focusing on what she can control. She has come to cherish the everyday moments that truly matter. Everyone faces their own challenges, and for Owen, Down syndrome is just one part of who he is. Abby and her husband continue to dream big for Owen’s future, just as they do for their two neurotypical children. Join us for this inspiring conversation that encourages us all to embrace life’s unpredictability.
