I think people who are not in this situation don't realize how much it affects the parents, too. <br />Some get scared off because they "don't know what to say". Wouldn't it be nice if they could even just say that sometimes rather than drop off the face of the earth completely?<br />I'm grateful that Adam was given to parents like you & your wife.the seedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08318729399322803709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2777149089680235167.post-10738531054626223532012-09-08T13:12:12.355-04:002012-09-08T13:12:12.355-04:00Well, Adam had his near drown when he was 12 and w...Well, Adam had his near drown when he was 12 and was a AAA hockey goalie, baseball all-star, girlfriend and rest of the backpack. Life changed as we knew it. After the first year, old friends disappeared, family never appeared, school focused on his paraprofessional. I could never take him back to his old haunts, in fact we eventually moved 150 miles away. Mom and Dad, his therapists and daily bodywork are his life, much to my dismay a hospital bed and old movies he liked before the accident are his friends. It tears you apart and it's a wound that never heals. I just have to focus on being his best friend, always there; hopefully the other stuff won't matter.
