How old were you when you got your diagnosis of WS?
I was 6 years old.
When you talk to parents of children with WS, what do you like to tell them?
That it's so important not to hold them back
In what ways?
In all ways. A person with ws should be looked at as a prison not as some one who can't do any thing.
I want propel to see what we are made of don't tell you child you can't do this tell them thy can.
ive had a very ruff life but at the same time ive learned a lot to a bout who i am what i am

i see my self as a strong woman with ws
can i ask you someing
Sure.
is it hard for you
Hard for me to be the parent of a child with WS?
yes
i dont get to talk with prants with child with ws i wish i could talk more to them
Hmmm. The hard parts for me are seeing the struggles that my son has and wishing things would be easier for him, hoping that he doesn't get teased for being different as he grows up and goes through school, and, in the beginning before we got his diagnosis, wondering why he was having so many physical difficulties and not knowing the answers. It can be difficult to keep up with all the therapy and doctor appointments and intentionally spend time with him teaching him how to do things that come naturally to other children, but he has also brought so much into our lives that we wouldn't have if we weren't on this journey. And, most importantly, God has been good in giving us the grace and mercy we need as we parent him-- and in that respect, it's not "hard" being his mother -- it's a joy.
amen. this may sound funny but i think if you put any kind of child with a hadicampped im a home it will chang lifes for ever
that is for sure -- it definitely starts you a journey that you didn't expect to be on.
true
