Student with Down syndrome makes history at Lee University

from WRCB TV NBC:
CLEVELAND, TN (WRCB) - Lee University student Corey Moore is making big waves.
"A doctor that was kind of ignorant told me your son is probably never going to walk or talk," says Krisi Moore.

Moore introduced us to her son Corey, who is not only walking and talking, but in the gym two days a week working a part time job. If that isn't enough, he's the first ever student with down syndrome at Lee University.
"Well it's better than laying around the house," says Corey.
Groundbreaking yes - but no big deal if ask Corey.
"Down syndrome is just an extra chromosome. I'm no different than anyone else."
Different only in the way he chooses to tackle life.
