Hello all, I am Bob McKinney, proud father of Daniel McKinney, 25 yrs, Mosaic Down Syndrome. My wife Pam (an ICU nurse), Danny and myself live in South Beach, Oregon. We moved here about 6 months ago from the Florida panhandle and just love it... Daniel works at Shangri-La in South Beach, one of a number of sheltered workshops in Oregon which are very similar to ARC. If you would like to see a picture of Danny at work..visit www.newportnewstimes.com/articles/2004/04/14/business/business01.txtI wrote a paper entitled Daniel's Story which covers our experiences with Daniel over the past 25 years. The paper covers many aspects of life, habits, diagnosis, school (special ed style), social security lessons learned, and mistakes I made along the way. I wrote the paper to give parents/family members with a younger DS child a glimpse of what MIGHT be ahead of them. Daniel's Story was too long to post on this site, but, if you would like me to e-mail it to you, I would be glad to. Just e-mail me at ooginal@cablespeed.com God Bless each of you, Bob McKinney « Last Edit: 05/19/2004 at 16:11:21 by ooginal »

Not sure if anyone emailed Bob, I did and OMG!!!! What a wonderful story. I laughed and I cried and sent him back the longest email.
Thanks, Bob for sharing some of Daniel's life with us. ;D
