I want him to live a happy, fulfilled life. I hope that he w...Envir...

Finding Joy in Simple Things. Thursday, May 22, 2014. PWS Awareness Day 22: Scoliosis. You know what's keeping me up at night? It's not the food or the tantrums. It's the darn scoliosis. Ten years have passed and I still sound bitter, don't I? I've written this before, but raising a kid with special needs is sometimes a bit of a triage situation. We can't tackle everything at once. We have to identify priorities, and recognize that some things will just not get done. Right now we have to focu...Thank you...

Finding Joy in Simple Things. Wednesday, May 21, 2014. PWS Awareness Day 21: Rigid Thinking. I peeked in on Oscar in the bathroom at 7:25 this morning. He needed to leave for the van stop in ten minutes, and I wasn’t sure if he was even dressed. I’d asked him to shower, which always slows things down, and when I opened the door, he was standing in front of the mirror, still naked, dabbing his face with cleansing pads. 8220;Oskie, you just.
