Girl in a Party Hat » Does Dopey have Down syndrome? http://girlinapartyhat.com Girl in a Party Hat Sun, 01 May 2022 19:26:40 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=3.9.40 Does Dopey have Down syndrome? http://girlinapartyhat.com/index.php/2009/03/does-dopey-have-down-syndrome/ http://girlinapartyhat.com/index.php/2009/03/does-dopey-have-down-syndrome/#comments Tue, 10 Mar 2009 06:02:38 +0000 http://girlinapartyhat.wordpress.com/?p=1025 This is a question I’ve pondered before, and of course I’m reminded of it here at the Magic Kingdom., where every other geeky dad is wearing a tee shirt that says, “I’m Grumpy because you’re Dopey.”

I tried to talk Ray into the Tiki Room Hawaiian shirt, but he didn’t really seem that into it, so I think I’ll skip the $74 expenditure.

Ray insists Dopey does not have DS. He says there’s evidence of drawings by the Mesopotamians (who predate Snow White and friends by a lot) and those drawings actually depict features associated with DS, whereas Dopey doesn’t look like he has it at all. I say that’s just a matter of opinion. He’s got it.

Just imagine where Dopey would be today if he’d had early intervention services.

And yes, I’m punchy from 12 hours at Disneyland. Good night.
