I just read a blog . And again I cry. A comment on my post, and I returned the visit.
I urge you to visit "that girl" (don't click here I don't know how to do that yet!) if you want to put your world to perspective. Or connect, or support. I have some blogs I read daily. Two of them are parent's of kids with disabilities, "That girl" is a mom of a child with cerebral palsy.
My job and one of my passions is providing support to individuals with a variety of disabilities, and working with their families. I am able to see and share a tiny bit of the struggles and successes they face every day. I have often sat with parents through meetings and service plans and diagnosis debriefings, and on many occasions have asked, (just in their ear)
Don't you just want to scream? And they alway nod.
We all have dreams and plans for our children, most often before they are born.
And as parents, we would take on every pain our child had to save them from it. When they are heartbroken, we are as well . I have never felt so helpless as when I could not do for my child. I try to magnify that feeling to understand what you face, but I cannot.
I want to be able to help, just a little, to lighten your load. And I don't know how, and it frustrates me to tears. So I will pray.
