Hi Kat, thank you for sharing your story. As a mom with a special needs child, it’s always nice to meet other moms who understands what I went through and go through. I see you have a blog, can’t wait to visit and read your story. My daughter and I have come a long way, but it seems there’s always a new hurdle awaiting us. Wishing you and your son the best. So glad to connect.

My 13 year old son has special needs and he is my oldest (of 3) so I had no idea when he first started regressing because I didn’t have experience around young children. I remember those early IEP meetings very well and the stress and anxiety that went with them. Kudos to you for your maternal strength and professionalism – you are a true advocate for your daughter. In those early years, I always had my son on my mind constantly looking at different therapies and worried about his future. My life still does revolve around his therapy but, similar to you, I have found comfort through gratitude in the simple things.
