Assume I can!

Madison Tevlin, 22-year-old actress, advocate and model

I love  this bold, honest ad created in recognition of World Down Syndrome Day, which was March 21. In short, it poses the question: Why do you assume people with Down Syndrome can't do basic things, like have a drink or live on their own? Wouldn't it be better to assume they can? Our friends at CNN Audio spoke to the star of the viral video, 22-year-old actress, advocate and model Madison Tevlin, who says she loves "proving people wrong" about all of the things people with Down Syndrome can do. “I always say that I have Down Syndrome, and it’s the least interesting thing about me,” Tevlin said. “The part of who I am, well it’s not all of me. We should all celebrate our differences in our own special and unique ways.”

Well, not really, we are in Henderson, Nevada (but can see it in the far distance.)

As  GH#2 and I got through security, we headed way down to Gate 20. On the left side of the promenade were large display cases filled with various kinds of re-cycling art. This was one.

 

   

 

 

 

Our flight was delayed so we took selfies!

 

 

 

 

 

And, we enjoyed the sunset from John Wayne Airport, Orange County.

 

 

 

 

 

Now, Goodnight from Henderson.
