I am about to tell you the most amazing story. You can share the story while keeping the identities confidential.  Keep it in your memory as a reminder of how many lives you are touching in unique ways through Band of Angels.

We had family give birth to a baby girl with DS a few weeks ago.   They did not know she was going to have Down syndrome and apparently have no experience or knowledge of DS as you can imagine since their religion restricts electronics. So the hospital called me and I packed up one of our goody baskets to welcome their baby girl and educate them.  I thought twice about putting one of your DVD's in the basket as I know in their committed religion, they don't have electricity or watch TV.  At the last minute I was inspired to drop it in and take it to the hospital as I know they have TV's with DVD players in the rooms.  

Here's where the story gets AMAZING.  They watched the DVD four times in the
hospital and can't stop talking about how much it helped them.  I believe
this was the first television program one of the older siblings has EVER
watched.  How cool is that???????!!!!!
