From people who came through it

  • โ€œI was sure I'd nevre feel normal again. I was wrong. Ask for a double appointment if you can, it changed things for me. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

    Miriy G ยท been through parenting a child with a disability
  • โ€œNearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was respite once a month. I'm volunteering here now. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Praying for you.โ€

    junewest1999 ยท been through parenting a child with a disability
  • โ€œI was in the same place this time last year. I remember planning for when we are gone like it was yesterday. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.โ€

    Taylor from Houston W ยท been through parenting a child with a disability
  • โ€œPara quien empieza a criar a un hijo con discapacidad: no tienes que hacerlo todo perfecto. Yo todavรญa me enfado cuando la gente mira, pero he aprendido a rodearme de personas que entienden. Acepta la ayuda que te ofrezcan y busca momentos para ti, aunque sean pequeรฑos. No estรกs sola.โ€
