World Down Syndrome Day!

 

Rockin' my socks for World Down syndrome day! #SuperCooper

#WorldDownSyndromeDay2021

March 21, 2021 is World Down Syndrome Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about Down syndrome and celebrating individuals around the world living with the genetic condition. The date being the 21st day of the 3rd month was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.

 Rock some odd socks on March 21st. Chromosomes are shaped like socks, and since those with Down syndrome carry an extra chromosome, mismatched socks are a great symbol for the day.

Aunt NA loves ya Cooper! 😁 😘

Smooches and think Tink! 💋🧚
