[QUOTE="plymouthmom, post: 662129, member: 19298"] Hi Copa I am sorry for your difficult situation. And I can relate about your son. My son in many ways is similar. He is very smart and intelligent but has some very serious limitations that I never accepted. I am glad you are no longer blaming yourself. When I stopped blaming myself the relationship with my son started to change. Previously in an unspoken voice he could feel my guilt and shame and did less of what he is capable of because I would pick up the slack in some way. I have told him at times that it is not my fault (his disability). It is his responsibility to learn how to be as functional as he can with his limitations. I have become more accepting of this and know I cant change it. It feels better. I know you have some tough decisions and I want you to close your eyes and feel all the support and love from us that you need. We are here for you. [/QUOTE]
