Ep. 137 - Adopting a Child with Down Syndrome: The Choice That Changed Everything


Listen Later

In this powerful episode of See The Miracle, Miles and Elizabeth Adair pull back the curtain on a journey most people only admire from a distance—adopting a child with Down syndrome from halfway across the world. What began as a quiet calling turned into a bold, public act of faith, one that challenged cultural norms, tested relationships, and demanded a level of conviction most aren’t willing to step into. From Elizabeth’s formative experiences in Ecuador to the nights spent doubting, fundraising, and fielding unsolicited opinions, their story is a raw and beautiful reminder: love doesn’t follow the rules of comfort or convenience. It disrupts, transforms, and invites us to grow.

With honesty and heart, the Adairs share how community support became their lifeline and how their children, rather than being burdened, are being empowered by this journey. Their message is clear and unwavering: children with Down syndrome aren’t charity—they are world changers. And when a family says yes to one, they’re not just adding a member—they're building a legacy of inclusion, joy, and radical love for generations to come.
