Reply to nov.9 show

  I have to respond to todays show because if I can be of encouragement to the parents and or kids out there that's all that counts. All I have to say is that everything in life is doable. If I can do it so can anyone else. I am a single parent ( age 36 )of three children. I as well as my son are disabled. I got out of a bad situation with an alcoholic husband. I live by myself with my kids. I live on a very limited income but I don't rely financially on the state or my mother who is a widow. It may not be easy at times but my whole point is that anyone can do it if they put forth effort. May God Bless you all!

Keep your chin up.

I can understand how it may be frustrating and tiring for some people that have a child with disabilities. In my own experience, I am a single mother of three children. I  myself, have M.S. and my youngest child, Joshua has 2 disabilities. He is 5 years old. He does not walk, talk, eat by mouth, and is blind in 1 eye.He is in diapers also. Even though he may not be able to all of these things yet, he makes little steps every day it seems and is a lot smarter than people know.  I would not change for 1 second, not to be his  mother. He is a blessing in my life. Yes, it may not be easy at times, but there are always ways of coping with things. I really think that we who have children like this, it only makes us  better, stronger people and more able to appreciate life. We learn from them. You are not alone with how you feel. I wish you the best. Take care.
