Summary

This is a horrifying story that needs to be told.   In the second half of the show, we'll chat with Jordana Stern and Mary McHale, who are part of  "My Great Story" from the National Down Syndrome Society. "My Great Story" honors and shares the stories of some of the 400,000 Americans with Down Syndrome.
