Texas Down Syndrome Chat
The goal of this podcast is to provide professional, quality information, and resources to individuals with Down Syndrome and their families on topics of interest related to Down Syndrome in English and Spanish. Though there are some Down Syndrome Podcasts out there, there aren’t many that cater to the Latino population as well. This podcast will also bring awareness and support to the Down Syndrome Association of South Texas, which is based in San Antonio, but covers all South Texas.
Texas Down Syndrome Chat
Family Spotlight: Bonnie Silva Montoya
Season 2, Episode 7 is a Family Spotlight! We talked with DSASTX Mom, Bonnie Silva Montoya, who has a 9 year-old daughter, Ella, with Down syndrome. She shared her story on her pregnancy diagnosis, her journey with Ella, joining and becoming a Parent Mentor for the DSASTX, and her & Ella's experience with coping with grief and loss. We hope you take a listen to this month's episode, and thank our guest, Bonnie, for coming out to talk with us about her and her family. We also hope the Texas Down Syndrome Chat supports, educates, and inspires our listeners, whether you have Down syndrome, or know someone who does.
