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€

  • 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€

  • โ€œNot sure if this makes sense. I'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. I had to stop googling. It made everything worse.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was planning for when we are gone. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. xโ€
