Nonetheless, Savannah finds great value in them because of this.
“It’s very rare what they have, but they’ve been my little gems,” she told News4JAX.
Savannah, a Middleburg, Florida native, posted videos of her postpartum journey on TikTok with her kids Kennadi Rue and Mckenli Ackerman, and the videos immediately acquired popularity.
Savannah said in one of her videos that she was advised to abort her children because they wouldn’t survive.
She made the choice to keep them and give them a shot.
”Every [prenatal] appointment they were alive was a blessing to me,” Savannah explained.
Her spouse was gone at boot camp when she found out they both had Down syndrome.
The twins had to spend a few weeks in the NICU before going home because they were born two months early.
“Mo di twins as it is, it’s likе very rare. And then you throw Down syndrome on top of it, it’s likе one in 2 million.”
Despite their rare condition, Savannah said they are just likе any other child.
