Support Groups – Let Their Experience Empower You
It is said that you cannot understand what a person’s experience is, until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.

I have a son with a mild form of cerebral palsy. It is mild, yes –thank God … but it is still a significant part of our life because it just – is.
It is the worry from his being born too early and too small (3.75 pounds at 28 weeks), the warning that he may have meningitis and will likely die; the relief when he started to develop normally and the meltdown when he started to walk funny.
