When the mom of a student with Down Syndrome dies of cancer, his teacher adopts him
Jean Manning was a single mom to Jake, a boy with Down Syndrome. The duo had to shift to Massachusetts from Florida for Jean’s medical care. Fortunately, soon after they shifted, a school placement was found and Jake became settled into what would be his new normal.

“I fell in love with him instantly,” Kerry told WCVB. After talking with her husband, Kerry made Jean an offer.
“Kerry Bremer came to Jeanie as an angel on earth and stepped up and offered to bring Jake into her family of five should Jeanie’s cancer win,” Jean’s friend Cheryl said.
