Raising a child with special needs
Welcome to this beautiful unexpected life of raising a child with special needs. You are here because you are caring for a child with special needs. You didn't plan for this life. No one plans for it. Everything changes, is disrupted, life becomes complicated with a child that has complex medical issues. In this site you will find useful information about caring for a child with special needs. I share my experience about my own daughter who lives with a severe and rare form of epilepsy, autism, obsessive compulsive disorder, intellectual and developmental disabilities. You are not alone - welcome to this very special club.

Holiday Nail Scandal
It was a neighborhood holiday party. There were hundreds of kids, or so it seemed, running around and having fun. The moms and dads made nice attempts to wear holiday-themed clothing. This event was not appropriate for my day-to-day black yoga pants.

Today I was checking out at my local grocery store. The young man bagging my groceries had special needs. He was very social with excellent eye contact as he asked me if I had any fun plans for the weekend. I smiled and said, “Yes. It should be a nice weekend to grill out.” I quickly asked him, “How about you? Do you have any plans?” He simply and politely said, “I plan to relax at home.” It was a perfect exchange of pleasantries from one to another. |
