I so get the despair and the upset that must have caused, and really feel for you. Hope you can try the day again sometime and have a better one, although I know that may not be possible :( but something else better might happen.

So I won't say that I understand - because I think that you have to have been in that sort of situation to truly understand how it feels.<br /><br />But I do know good writing when I see it, and this is *very* well-written. I will be back to read more of your writing.GirlWithTheCanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462575804450092656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670201345837905864.post-75501557542287565132012-09-07T08:53:54.895-04:002012-09-07T08:53:54.895-04:00Beautifully written.

I was going through old photos and realizing that the story they told for me - one through the lens of autism - is different from what a person would take from a single one of those snapshots. It was a little bittersweet, reliving those memories.MarfMomhttp://marfmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670201345837905864.post-65589648716375485342012-09-07T06:49:59.439-04:002012-09-07T06:49:59.439-04:00Thank you.

I also am trying to find the right words to express how beautiful your writing is, even when what you're writing about is something painful.
