Meghan Fay Sullivan
The Sullivans are so thrilled to be a part of the Pledge Committee for Ruby’s Rainbow. Our daughter, Miss Faye Delaney Sullivan, was born in November 2014, and to say we are so very blessed to have her in our lives would be the ultimate understatement. Faye has opened our eyes in so many ways and has given us the strength to encourage other families to stay positive, embrace their child’s glow, and recognize that there are endless possibilities for our children.
Over the years, we have witnessed the perseverance and determination of our little girl to overcome all the obstacles in front of her, which have included a feeding tube, open-heart surgery, and other developmental challenges. In the beginning it can be overwhelming at times, and worrying about her future was at the top of our list. Will she be able to communicate? Will she make friends? Will she be able to go to college, get a job and live on her own?
These are all concerns that any parent can relate to. With the help of social media, we stumbled upon an organization that helps to alleviate these concerns and gives hope that there is a future for our daughter and her peers. Ruby’s Rainbow allows adults with Down syndrome a chance to be a part of something that in the past was not even an option. This organization is changing their paths and in turn giving hope and security to new parents. We hope you will join us in supporting others like Faye in realizing their dreams!
