Pause

Today, at Support for Special Needs:
So sometimes you just have to stop. Your all-encompassing love sustains you through the hardest times and it's recharged by successes and moments of clarity, but love isn't enough, not always. It's the most rewarding life you can undertake, and you will grow in ways you can't have imagined at the beginning, but sometimes the experience of advocating for and taking care of a special needs child feels like stepping out into a maelstrom. Every so often you have to hit pause, or you will surely be swept away.
