After over a year of social distancing, many of us have finally started traveling again! But when it comes to vacationing with kiddos who have Down syndrome, there’s so much more to consider! After Mercedes’ daughter Sunny took an emergency trip to the hospital, we figured what better time to have a conversation about keeping our children safe and healthy while traveling.. and WHO better than Dr. Spinazzi to chat with!? That’s right, friends. She’s back on the show with practical tips for traveling (inhalers, pulse oximeters, signs/symptoms, preventative doctor’s visits, and more) plus information on local, national, and even international guidelines for planning your next trip! And because we have a doctor on this episode, we had to ask about the new variant of Covid-19 and what this means as we try to keep our loved ones with DS safe. Grab a pen and get ready to take some notes, friends!
