There is a ‘last time’ that only parents of special needs kiddos know about. And it is heartbreaking. For years I kept telling myself this was going to be fine. My son was going to be fine. And the joy he has for life typically carries me through the hard times.

And that switch is unbelievably painful and I wasn’t prepared for its impact.
