No one ever said that having a child/children with Autism/Special Needs was going to be easy.
No one ever said that being in a relationship (married or not) and having a child/children with Autism/Special Needs was going to be easy.
This life will either MAKE you or it will definitely BREAK you!
I've been living in this Special Needs world for almost 9 years! I have been torn down, built myself back up and torn down again, but for some reason I just keep on living in this life.
The reason(s) that I keep on living in this life is because of my children. They have literally made me who I am today. Everything I do; I do it for them.
I have an almost 9-year-old named Easton. He has quad spastic cerebral palsy, bilateral hydrocephalus, feeding tube, autism, dysautonomia, etc. He's pretty complex. He has many needs and definitely keeps me on my toes.
I also have an almost 6-year-old named Landin. He was born 5 weeks too early. He still has preemie issues. He also has Autism and ADHD with suspected anxiety.
I also have a 14-year-old named Kaiden. He is as typical as it gets.
My boys are my reason to keep on doing what I do.
