Lori and Joshua

[lawree]

Hi,
I am Lori, mom to 3 1/2 year old Joshua. We live in Rhode Island and are fortunate to have Dr. Siegfried Pueschel, MD., Ph. D., J. D., M.P.H. who has written numerous books on Down syndrome (including "A Parent's Guide to Down syndrome") as our doctor. He is a wealth of information. Also, Joshua qualifies for the Katie Beckett waiver in the State of Rhode Island so if anyone in the area needs assistance, they may feel free to contact me and I will help them in any way I can.
My e-mail is [e-mail].
You can see pictures and a painting of Joshua (with our dog; it is painted by an artist with Down syndrome) at http://www.landofpuregold.com.......click on Golden Michael's Art and scroll down to "Sharing in the Process"
[glow=red,2,300]ENJOY!
