Peltola had joked before the boy was born that the child would become a heart surgeon or an NHL player. However, in the delivery room, the family was told by the doctor that the result of the DNA test is Down syndrome.
– Ahead was a leap into the unknown. For a while I was really confused and sensitive, I could burst into tears in public places. Sometimes I even felt outright anger. I asked why it had to go this way, Peltola tells Anna magazine.
The initial shock lasted a few weeks and after that normal life with the child began. Today, 12-year-old Osmo can’t read or write much more than his own name. Peltola was very happy when Osmo learned to ride a bike.
Peltola has not sought peer support for the family’s situation.
