This letter (reprinted with permission) was written by our friends, the Desai family, upon the joyous news of their son Sujeet's wedding to his beloved, Carrie. The MHDSA Down syndrome community sends its best wishes to Suj and Carrie!  It is our privelege to celebrate with you!

Dear Friends,

By two breath taking weddings, Hindu on July 1st and Christian on July 8th 2006, our son Sujeet was married to Carrie Bergeron. This trailblazing wedding was witnessed and blessed with many tearful eyes and documented by various media. A special honor was a gift given by Dr. Siegfried Pueschel of the first copy of his book "Adults with Down syndrome". A book of stories about many self advocates including Suj & Carrie.

We were very proud of both Suj & Carrie for their gracious presentation as bride & groom with no reason to doubt by anyone why these two special adults should not have been married.

Suj amazed us as always with his unexpected first air travel on his own. Just two days before the wedding to NY city where he played in fundraising event for " Best Buddies" on Yacht "Highlander" with a special request from Anthony Kennedy Shriver! He will continue to do his solo instrumental entertainment along with power point workshops. Only now he will be joined by his wife Mrs. Carrie Bergeron Desai! (Carrie herself is an excellent motivational speaker). They will present their first workshop as a husband wife team next week in Atlanta at the 2006 National Down Syndrome Congress convention.

We like to thank all who personally attended their wedding and to those around the world who send their blessings for this wedding. We hope to have your continued support for Suj & Carrie. We soon will be updating Sujeet's web site www.sujeet.com with the photos from both the weddings and will continue to update their life story as they begin their married life together.

Best wishes

From Sindoor & Sharad Desai
