[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 728067, member: 21895"] Oh Leafy this truly hit home and encompasses so much of what we all endure. 20 years! 20 years!! My dear friend my son isn’t even yet 20 years old and I am exausted and heart spent. I often clip posts and bits of posts to keep and reread when I am at low points. It helps so much. Leafy may I be so bold as to suggest you Fran this little clip and keep it near for yourself. Mama your a true warrior with a heart full of compassion. MFDU I feel your pain because I love your pain. You are not alone. Please remember to take care of you. I almost lost myself in heartbreak and sorrow. I sat with a woman at a business dinner today and she has 4 children. One who died in childhood from a genetic disorder and one who is Down Syndrome and dependant on them and always will be. I saw the supper and empathy that people gave this mother. I though to my self, how would these people act If I said my son is a drug addict who has been in jail 3 times. I hedge to bet I would have been met with awkward silence. We are isolated from open empathy but we all have each other here! [/QUOTE]
