If it means anything Barbara, I knew exactly what you were saying. Knowing what I know - the rest of the folks here may not know that I have a nephew with the same challenges as your son - I can say that, bottom line, your family most likely feels that it's been more of a blessing than a burden and you can't imagine it being any other way.
