Trisomy 21/Down Syndrome Awareness with Jamese Siranga

Today we have the privilege of introducing you to Oklahoma Family Network's newest staff member and sharing a small portion of her experience and perspective learning her daughter has Down Syndrome.

This is a real and honest conversation that will touch your heart.

We Saved You A Seat, sat down with Jamese Siranga on March 21 (World Down Syndrome Day) and discussed the impact Down Syndrome has on their beautiful family.  You will walk away from today's podcast with a full heart after hearing from Jamese and want to hear more from her, as she shares her family and daughter, Selah, with us.
