Teen With Down Syndrome Determined To Become A Model

There are more than 400,000 people living with down syndrome in United States itself and people have a preconceived idea of what they can do and what not. But Madeline Stuart has a story to inspire us all. She is only 18 years old and lives in Brisbane, Australia.

She is suffering from down syndrome but it wasn't enough to stop her from working towards her dream of becoming a model. With the help of her mother Rossane, Madeline managed to lose 44 pounds by exercising, swimming, dancing, playing basket ball, cricket and most importantly managing her diet. Madeline hopes modelling will help her change societies view of people with down syndrome. She has already being selected in the living dead label (Australia) which signs models with diverse body types but she still asks her fans to follow her on Twitter and like her page on Facebook so that she gets fame on social media because it is only then the modelling world will look at her. Check out some of Madeline's lovely photographs below and don't forget to like her on Facebook and follow her on Twitter.
