We travel to Bloemfontein to meet Sheri Brynard, a 30-year-old woman living with Down Syndrome. But what makes Sheri stand out from the rest is that she is the only person living with the syndrome to attend normal schools and attain a teaching diploma. Sheri is now a teaching assistant at Lettie Fouche School in Bloemfontein.  In her spare time she does motivational speaking as far as the UK. Sheri has starred in the hit Afrikaans TV series, Binnelanders and apart from her love for acting and public speaking, Sheri is in the process of writing her own book.
