Re - Dodie..there is hope!!

[Guest guest]

,

I agree this distribution is at a minumum a great

support. There are so many that can't possibly get

all that apraxia, si, etc. involves, the hrs. in therapy,

homework, emotional strain... etc.. I do agree it is

by faith & hard work that we have to continue. I for

one appreciated your " ranting "

Now that we are doing so well, I think my husband is understanding more of

what we actually went through....From the in-laws all I hear is " I told you

he would be just fine! " . I want to scream at them and say after many, many

Dr. evaluations, almost 3 years of intensive speech therapy, millions of

hours of working with him at home, zillions of tears and prayers, and the

most important - FAITH!!!!! But I know that won't get it. They are the

one's missing out though, they will never know for who he truly is.

He has worked so hard and overcome so much adversity...he is truly an

inspiration.

Okay - I ranted on enough - just wanted to let you know you are not alone

and many of us mothers' are going this hard road alone emotionally - that is

why this listserve is so important....we mothers can support one another and

give the emotional support that is so important!!

Will be thinking of you!!
