Persistence….
Through rage
Beyond distance
Past mental illness
Around therapy
Above hatred
Within pain
Without time

Five months He has been home - nearly six.
I had to take him to the doctor today - for a chest cold!
It’s the first time in more than THREE years I have taken my son to a
doctor for a “normal” thing!
We talked about this on the way and both shed a tear.
His giant hand held mine as we drove down the highway.
After the appointment, He asked if he could eat at home before I dropped him off at school.
This is huge!
For five months, I have been forcing him to go to school -
I love today.
