It was so Sad and an emotional moment 😱🥺

When my son was first diagnosed with Autism, I was emotionally devastated. I couldn’t talk about it without bursting into tears. I avoided seeing people and I was very depressed. As time went on, our family slowly adjusted to our “new normal.” Now, most days

it is what it is, as I try to remain positive and hopeful for my son’s future. My son is an amazing person. I’m extremely proud of him and what he has accomplished so far in life. I know he will accomplish so much more in the future because he works very hard.

But every once in a while, I get really, really sad. I cry for the loss of what could have been. I worry and stress about his future. I am exhausted from organizing therapy, academic tutors and advocating for services.
