I have a teacher who is trying to find an essay she read about 10 years ago.  It was written by a mother whose child had Down's Syndrome (possibly CP).  It was about how you don't always get what you expect....when she was pregnant, she had dreams/expectations for her new baby...like what you expect to see when you go to Paris on a trip....however, her plane landed in Australia....Australia is good, but she expected Paris.

Does anyone out there recognize this and have a source?

Thanks a bunch!
