Do what you can and hope for the best and just trust in God. <br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2296867968408174746.post-19465236502654385482011-07-13T14:01:00.189-04:002011-07-13T14:01:00.189-04:00As a mom of a child with down syndrome I totally u...As a mom of a child with down syndrome I totally understand what you are feeling. I find myself comparing her to other kids typically developing and with ds. The unknown is so hard. I just try to tell myself that she will do it in her own time but trust me it's hard. I keep hoping that for one day I won't think about ds. Maybe someday. I also have shed many tears. Just yesterday! I always think its good to talk to someone who has gone or is going through the same things. Hope your day goes better!Kim Kushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02748633752010941303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2296867968408174746.post-40543072571202922712011-07-13T10:57:31.332-04:002011-07-13T10:57:31.332-04:00Sometimes I wish you were closer.

God gives us challenges built just for us. While I've never been in your shoes, I will say that you are strong and mighty. Shed some tears and know that there is no weakness in that. I'm thinking of you. Love you.Lynnnoreply@blogger.com
