Hannah Louise Yarnall

Welcome to Hannah's webpage. Hannah was born on 5th July 2002 with Down's syndrome and a heart defect. She went on to have open heart surgery at 9weeks.

We created this site as we wanted to portray that having a child with Down's syndrome was a positive thing and having a life full of hope and joy instead of feeling that when the first diagnosis is given that their world crashes in around them.

We hope that by coming here that people will appreciate the true value of their children even though the path we walk is not always easy we hope that you will share with us the high's and lows of Hannah's journey which we have been chosen to take.

This weekend we met up with our online friends and we had a wonderful day at RAF Cosford

You know I felt really proud that we could meet up and it felt like we were just one big family with a common bond. It was wonderful how we all looked out for each others children and all the children really got on like a house on fire

I have always thought that having Hannah in my life would lead me on many wonderful journeys and allow me to meet wonderful people

This weekend was one of those occassions.
