		<description>Margaret, I have known your mom for a few  years and I too think she is awesome.  I love your essay. My daughter Rachel has Down syndrome. She is nine and has the best life of anyone I know.  What I like best about your essay is that you are a role model for my daughter!  We all need role models and I can use you as a role model for Rachel.  I know your mom will share this with you and I look forward to meeting you someday!  Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!</description>

		<description>Dear Margaret,
Thank you for writting such a wonderful letter.  My daughter Samantha who just turned six, also has Down Syndrome.  You are an inspiration to me as a mother knowing that my daughter will have friends and find success.  You give me hope.  Keep up the great work and keep proving yourself to everyone.
Sincerely,
Deb Canney</description>

		<description>Thank you Margaret.  I have a daughter named Margaret also. I love your name.  Also, thank you for this wonderful essay.  I am taking my sweet little boy who is 2 years old, named Ricky, and bringing him to a high school to teach the students about Down syndrome. He also has Down syndrome. I think I will bring your essay to read to them so they understand what it is.  You did such a great job that I think I would be crazy not to just use your words!! Thanks so much!!</description>

		<description>Dear Margaret
What a precious article - you are a star!  I have a wonderful angel, Hayley, who is four years old, and it is just so lovely to read such an inspiring piece by a teenager with Down syndrome.  Thank you for the hope that you give mothers like myself.  Continue shining, my girl!
Love Heidi - South Africa</description>

		<description>Margaret, I am so impressed by your essay and thank you for sharing with all of us your experience of having Down syndrome. I have a fourteen-year-old daughter who also has Down syndrome and she has just finished middle school. I am going to share your essay with her because I think she will enjoy reading about you because you have so much in common. Keep up the great work and keep your positive outlook on life!</description>

		<description>Dear Margaret,
    Thank you very much for writing this essay (and thank you to this site for posting it)!  I definitely learned a lot from reading it, and hopefully as more people understand what Down Syndrome is, they will understand that you and other people with Down Syndrome do indeed lead very &#039;worthwhile lives&#039;.</description>
