"I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders." 
                                                                     ~ Jewish Proverb

 

    Every day I'm reminded of how tough, persistent,  
    committed, passionate, and steadfast parents of a child
    with a disability are.  From the single mother of two,
    working nights so that she can take her child with severe
    disabilities to medical appointments during the day, to the
    family in the mid-west who's parents stay up with their child
    through the night to assist with medical issues, then get up
    and go to work the next day ... day in and day out.

    This page is designed for the Parent.  We hope you will find
    helpful tools, ideas, camaraderie, and support.  Most
    importantly, we encourage your feedback helping us to tailor
    this site to your needs and interests..
