Teegan :: Down syndrome

Meet Teegan!!!
“Teegan is a beautiful, bright eyed and energetic little girl! We learned of her diagnosis when she was born and had a stay of 6 days in the NICU for jaundice, low sugars, irregular heartbeat and chromosome testing. As I was wheeled out of the NICU I held this sweet fragile baby and the doctor approached me and said it’s confirmed Teegan has Trisomy 21. At that moment I felt worried and excited all at the same time not knowing the adventures or struggles we would face. Teegan is the 3rd child in our family and is loved by all immensely. No one looks at her different and her brothers believe she is the coolest little girl ever! Teegan loves to be outdoors and especially loves painting, lotion and lipstick. Teegan is very limited on what she can say but she signs her needs and still always finds a way to tell everyone what she wants. We are blessed that overall Teegan has had a somewhat healthy life and we pray it stays that way.”
