However, her pregnancy was considered high risk and treated like that. Lisa’s son Nic was born 4 weeks early and, like his parents, had Down syndrome.
Nic’s father was present at his birth, and the new parents tried to live under one roof around Nic’s birth. But, unfortunately, it didn’t work. Sadly, Nic’s father passed away when Nic was 5.
Nic, who is now 24 years old and an handsome young man, was raised by his mom and grandmother, who both couldn’t be prouder of him.
Having children is always a risk for everyone involved, and Lisa was particularly vulnerable – not least because many had opinions about her decision to become a mother.
It went so far that Lisa lost touch with some of her friends – because her friends’ parents were afraid that Lisa would influence their daughters to want babies too.
But ultimately none of these views matter, especially not to Nic who has continued to thrive; he’s a college graduate with huge respect for the women who have raised him. The person he is today is thanks to them.
