How well I remember the many times I briefly escaped the demands of special needs parenting simply by taking a drive in my car. Those short escapes worked wonders, and I always came back ready to take on the next challenge.
Where would you go if you could hit the open road right now?

Special Needs News -Eunice Kennedy Shriver Day 2010
I'm thrilled that my son's birthday now falls on the same date as Eunice Kennedy Shriver Day.

With the exception of Christopher Reeve, whose birthdate is also today, I can't think of a better person with whom to share September 25th.
It's an honor that helps heal the sting of my great loss.

Happy 20th birthday, my beloved Eric! You'll live on in my heart forever.
