Hi, I am Tracy the mother of Miles (almost 19) who happens to have Down syndrome and autism. Our story features in this months Down Syndrome Association's news. Having Miles has educated, enlightened and enriched my life, which lead to a new career as one half of Singing Hands. We sing and sign using Makaton and have just released our 6th DVD - it being our first POP DVD suitable for older children to adults. Read our story and follow our journey. Tracy x
