This condition leads to deficiencies in both cognitive ability and physical growth.

Humans usually complain about their life, and they are unsatisfied of what they have and always desire more and more.

Those individuals who are born with a disease such as Down’s Syndrome (DS), a genetic defect of the chromosome 21, valuate and see…
