Every year our family receives holiday greetings from the Centre Medicale Jerome LeJeune, a wonderful Down syndrome clinic in Paris. The second of our three children, 14-year-old Christina, who has Down syndrome and autism, was followed by doctors there during the six years we lived in France. Receiving the card from the clinic always gets me thinking about causes and effects, and about how often we overestimate the extent to which we understand and control them.
