Wow...I wish I still had the time and mental energy to blog like this!! I copied the highlights for me... "When other people need a break, they are encouraged to do so." "Do you lose sleep worrying about whether or not your son is going to get his diaper changed at school, or spend all day sitting in his wheelchair? And then spend more time worrying because you have to find the time in the day to add that fight to your list? Do you fret about where you are going to find the money to get a new walker, or where to find winter boots to go over their AFO’s?" "Sorry, but you could be the best, most supportive, most loving professional ever, but if you aren’t a special needs parent, you will never understand." "So when we say that we just want to give up sometimes, think about all the events in our life that have led up to that point, and then decide if you want to tell us that we are bad parents for not having the energy anymore" Nathan Charlan
