I am sharing a blog by a woman that I've never met, but that I feel like I know today.
The truth is that we all probably know someone like her. We just may not realize it.
Someone struggling with a diagnosis for her child, overwhelmed and scared. Afraid of what he might become, what he might be capable of. A system, largely unable to help. Not enough resources or funding or access. A system failing not just these children, but all of us.
Please read this piece by Liza Long, please take it to heart, please share it.
We must do better.
