Mondays by Mum - Experience

I really don't know what to say, so I'll just wing it. I have no answers, just experience...

Of nearly 19 years of sleepless nights. Endless assessments, meetings, phone calls to get what my son needs and deserves. All the while being torn in a dozen different ways. I succeeded. But I forgot to fight for me. I didn't educate myself about support, respite something as simple as therapy. I got stuck in an autistic bubble. Today my advice is reach out make friends. Give yourself permission to have a enriched life, which in turn will help you be a better advocate for your child.
