💙💛 October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month! 💛💙
Hi. I'm Mark Lohan.
I live in Meath with my Mammy, Daddy and big brother James.
I am almost 3 years old. I have had a very busy 2026 so far. I started play school a few weeks ago, and I love playing dress-up, knocking down duplo towers, playing with the farm animals and being outside with my friends.
I am getting so much stronger on my legs, and I'm trying my best to get walking, all with the help of my biggest cheerleader, my brother James.
I love books, music, bubbles, throwing balls and watching the cows in the field. My absolute favourite treat is ice cream.
Once again, we’d love to celebrate our amazing Louth Meath members by featuring someone each day throughout October — and if we get lots of submissions, we’ll feature more than one! 😊
📸 Send us a photo, video or short story that shows what makes your loved one special.
🎂 October birthday? Let us know, and we’ll celebrate with you!
🎥 Older members are also welcome to share their own story on video.
📧 Send submissions to info@louthmeath.downsyndrome.ie
Let’s fill October with celebration, positivity and smiles! 💙💛

This is Odhrán Doogan from Dundalk.
He was 3 years old on the 1st of October!
He just started preschool in August and has settled in really well; the staff have all fallen in love with him. He brightens up everybody's day. He is a very clever and funny little boy, and his whole family are extremely proud of him.
