It’s a new day! The body of Christ. July 10, 2013. In April, I was asked to share our family’s story with a group of folks who have financially and prayerfully supported our schools by giving to the Educational Support Services fund. While I have often written about our journey at Apple Pie, Anyone? I had never given a speech before. It was no small joy and even honor to stand before so many who have walked with us for so long. I considered it an opportunity to say ‘Thank you.’. It’s a new day! You are c...

For when your child doesn’t fit in. October 21, 2013. And it cuts. Deep. Then, another worry sets in. You’re just waiting for the day to come when other children, maybe even the ones that now call themselves “friend”, will start to. Tell your child how he or she is different. And, sure enough, that horrid day arrives. You overhear another child utter words to describe your child that flitted across your heart, but only in shadowed whispers. But, for those barely identifiable days when you’re sure t...

The art of unfolding and resting. The body of Christ →. July 3, 2013. Bella’s formula comes from a medical supply company. And her snacks are ordered from Amazon. I keep joking that some day I will be able to just go to the grocery store to get this girl some grub. But for now, it’s phone calls to get prescriptions (yes, prescriptions) for her formula and online ordering. I’m currently on my fifth attempt to get Bella her formula. Fifth. Right, someone will call you back to figure this out,. MAN ON OTHER...

What An ALS Family REALLY Thinks About the Ice Bucket Challenge | Bo Stern
http://www.bostern.com/blog/2014/08/15/what-an-als-family-really-thinks-about-the-ice-bucket-challenge
The Difference of Day. What An ALS Family REALLY Thinks About the Ice Bucket Challenge. Well, we are on week two of the very-viral very-everywhere ALS ice bucket challenge. I know, I know, I can hear the groans…it started out cute and now it’s out-of-control. Played. Clogging up social media sites everywhere. I even read this article. Is the Ice Bucket Challenge Going to Cure ALS? 8221; Um, no. Why does she -a doctor of medicine – still only know it by Lou Gehrigs Disease? I have zero problem with that.

A list of resource links by diagnosis. As a parent on this crazy, sometimes frantic, sometimes painfully slow journey, I have often wished I had access to a simple base of information. Information. Information fellow moms have used to help understand and explain. This is an attempt to get you started. Certainly leave a comment if you have a link you’d like to add from your own experience. Any and Every diagnosis. Wrightslaw Yellow Pages for Kids with Disabilities. Childhood Apraxia of Speech. You are com...
