Always a Blessing

Got this from Kristi Mason's blog with her permission. She's Billy's awesome mom :)

=====

You weren't like other children,

And God was well aware,

You'd need a caring family,

... With love enough to share.

And so He sent you to us,

And much to our surprise,

You haven't been a challenge,

But a blessing in disguise.


Your winning smiles and laughter,

The pleasures you impart,

Far outweigh your special needs,

And melt the coldest heart.

We're proud that we've been chosen,

To help you learn and grow,

The joy that you have brought us,

Is more than you can know.

A precious gift from Heaven,

A treasure from above,

A child who's taught us many things,

But most of all ... Real Love

James Undergoing EEG

Nope, James is not having his hair permed :p He had a seizure episode last August 4 when our pedia-neuro was unfortunately out of the country at the time. Fortunately, we were referred by my sister to my nephew's neuro who advised us to have James undergo an Electro Encephalogram (EEG) to check brain activity. Since it was about 3-4 years since James' last procedure, hubby and I were surprised to see that the graphs are now being done digitally whereas a few years ago, graphs were "written" on pages and pages of large pieces of continuous paper.

How Parents of Children with Special Needs Feel

I am very thankful to have found this in another parent's website. I feel exactly the same way as Emily and I hope that this entry could somehow help you guys understand, and maybe empathize, with what parents like us are going through. I can honestly say it is a privilege to be entrusted by God with someone as special as my son. It has been a wonderful journey for our family and we'll keep on finding ways to look at the positive sides as we continue to have fun with our James :)  == Welcome To Holland By Emily Perl Kingsley I am often asked to describe the experience of raising a child with a disability-to try to help people who have not shared that unique experience to understand it, to imagine how it would feel. It's like this... When You're going to have a baby, it's like planning a fabulous vacation trip- to Italy. You buy a bunch of guide books and make wonderful plans. The coliseum, Michelangelo's David. The gondolas of Venice. Yo...
