You may have been one of the 5 million people (no big deal right?) to see Zach & Pat’s viral videos on tik tok. This brother duo has taken social media by storm with their Down syndrome advocacy, positivity, and of course - dancing! So naturally, we needed to meet them.. which is why we sat down to chat with Pat all about growing up with a younger brother who has Down syndrome, navigating social media, and watching Zach find his passion!
If you’re anything like us and you’ve wondered about your child with DS and their future relationship with their siblings, this one's for you.
