Champion with Down Syndrome: The prejudices of others made my life difficult

Additional chromosome did not prevent her from achieving great successes, except as a swimming champion, she has engaged in music and what she does not.

Medina Surdul from Down Syndrome, says that this extra chromosome has not made life difficult for her, but the family of champion in swimming made life difficult for others.

I've loved and wanted to show you, my country, Kosovo and the whole world my potential, that we're here with an extra chromosome that it doesn't make any difference. I pledge that I will continue trying to show you and all the world and in God's eyes that we are the same. Me and my family didn't make life down the syndrome. But prejudice, I've managed to break prejudice”, she said before the youth.
