Freddie is always carrying this brave, happy, funny, and strong feeling around. He’s always acting funny and running all over the place, which I see as an advantage.

Freddie is really cool and I'm glad he's my brother. Sometimes it's a little difficult to communicate with him because he doesn't talk much, but he is easy to like and will express himself when he feels like it.

Freddie has gotten older and fought through many diagnoses, mostly with a smile on his face. I don't know if I've met a tougher human being in my life.

I've "heard" that the stubborn gene likes to hide out in that 3rd copy of the 21st chromosome. I'm sure one day being stubborn may cause a riff in his day, but for the first 6 years of his life he has used it to fuel his strength.
