There isn't a treatment for downs. Its a condition your born with and die with. However there are certain things can be done to improve a person with downs' life. These could be made up of speach therapy, behaviour therapy and assistance with cognitive development. Lots of people with downs grow up to do the same as us. They have good jobs, relationships, children, run a house ect. So they don't need "treating". Just require extra support early on
As many of the diagnoses of "DID syndrome" come from US, many believe this comes from poor therapists suggesting this to susceptible patients!
Approximately 6.4 Million PeopleThe world population in 2004 was 6.4 billion people. As the Down syndrome rate is about 1 per 1000 births, this gives us an estimate of 6.4 million people who had Down syndrome in 2004. As Down syndrome people have a lower life expectancy than other people, this may be a slightly high estimate.(Please see the related links for sources.)
About 90 percent of pregnant women who are given a Down syndrome diagnosis have chosen to have an abortion. Until recently the test was given only to women over 35 so many got the message after the child was born so they never had the option.
It's estimated that about 200,000 people in the US suffer from Tourette's syndrome in 2009, which would be about 6.5% of the population.
