question. . . apraxia . . . express feelings

[Guest guest]

Kathy,

I'm so sorry about your husband's accident.

It seems as if you are doing everything right for your kids, but don't forget

about your needs - you are important too. Even if you are not personally

into counseling, sometimes a support group can be very helpful - often a

hospital social worker would be are able to hook you up with one. Is there a

psychologist on staff where your twins attend school? One who specializes in

young children may be able to help you with techniques for them. When

working with young children, they often use dolls and doll houses to act out

scenes because even " typical " young children have difficultly expressing

their feelings verbally.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children.

Barbara
