The Guide to Good Health for Teens & Adults With Down Syndrome Paperback – Illustrated, September 7, 2010

this is a wonderful book! thanks goes out to the writers!! its so hard to find material and info for adults with down syndrome. this is an excellent reference guide, also with great tips. brings understanding to living with and living with someone with downs. and what to do for care currently and in the future. very easy to read, not too much over the head info in this book. i would highly recommend to anyone living with or even family members of someone with downs.

I highly recommend this book it's worth the price. As my daughter aged and certain things were happening I went to this book for directions. Most doctors don't understand Down Syndrome or the effects medications and certain treatments have on the individual with Downs. I referred to this book at times with my daughters doctors.

This book should be a must for anyone, parent, caregiver, orprofessional who deal with special down syndrome teeens or adults.It's comprehensive, easy to read and understand. It opens our eyes into the thinking of a person dealing with their physical & mental problems;and since the life span is longer for this population it is good to be prepared to any possible problems. You can tell theauthors truly understand and love their patients.

I have not completed the book yet as I was distracted by "Mental Wellness in Adults with Down Syndrome" my son is 56 and we have maneuvered through many issues this publication hit home with. It is always good to hear about other experiences, it helps us feel we do not come from another planet but perhaps just another zone.

I work in this field. This book contains important information for anyone working with individuals with Down's syndrome.

Helpful for research. Plus bought one for my brother's caregiver. my 61 year old brother with downs is having health problems.This book has been extremely helpful in researching his symptoms. I recommend to anyone with down syndrome adults.

EXCELLENT helps me to know what to look for and monitor for persons with Downs and their special health issues that I don't face invaluable to on going caregivers of persons with Downs

Great information

... or just what a lot of doctors & health professionals could do with.Clearly written in lay-mans terms, I found it incredibly useful and I am sure I will refer to it many, many times over the coming decades. I think anyone with a child with Down's Syndrome or anyone who cares for someone with DS will find this invaluable.

Wonderful to have this on hand as a reference book. Very thorough and helpful.

A must for any family that has a son or daughter with Down's Syndrome. Wish I knew about it earlier!

My DS sister is 44 this year and this book fits her to a T. More caregivers for the developmentally disabled should read this book. They would learn valuable information!
