Journey with Special Needs Children

It’s Saturday 8am in CA right now. I am getting ready to head to work. Today will be a better day is the mindset that I woke up with. For all those that struggle mentally, financially, and physically with caring for kids with special needs, just know that no matter what emotions you are feeling, it is absolutely normal and there is no shame to it. Some days are extremely tough and lonely, like the one I was having yesterday, but there are days where I feel very hopeful and really feel like I can truly help my son and maybe make a small difference in the community. When I was feeling very down yesterday, all I did was keep telling myself that when I am in that kind of mindset, where I am down and completely checked out, that I am not at my best to care for my child, that I need get my stuff together to be the best mom that I can be. But sometimes it’s very hard to get out of a rut, and for all those that are in a rut, I hope you know that you are not alone. Currently everyday is a challenge, but my life most continue as my child fully depends on me. So wishing myself a good day at work, and for all the moms out there, happy early Mother’s Day!
