    If you could change one thing about your life right now…

    …what would it be? Good question. I have a ton of answers if I really think about. But at the same time, do I really want those things to change. I could wish about changing our finances. Where I’m living. My extreme shyness, which I’m told is probably not shyness at all but a social anxiety disorder. Health for family members. My weight. How disconnected I am from friends. The fact that I’m a picky eater. But honestly, first thought goes to changing our youngest son’s diagnosis. I would take those years of therapies away for him in an instant. The hurdles he is going to (and will) overcome. The ignorance he’s going…

    Respite & Recharged

    Today we took E to a science/discovery centre. We’ve wanted to go many times when we’ve been up here but we’ve never been able to fit it into our schedule.

Our hospital doesn’t have enough experience with something like this to keep our little guy safe. To hear all the specialists telling us that if he has an episode (i.e. caused by a bout of sickness) before they figure this out he has a high possibility of dying…

    Disconnect

    I feel so disconnected from what’s going on in the world. I haven’t had much time or a great connection to read the news app, blogs, twitter, or even facebook. (I’ve been trying my best to keep everyone updated on N though) I hope I’m not missing anything huge in the world. Someone please tell me if there is anything major going on that I should be following just in case I’m living in my bubble and completely oblivious. I don’t want to feel like a dork and have no idea what people are talking about. I’m tired. I want to write more but I can’t. I don’t have the…
