Progress



It seems like yesterday when he was still in PICU.  He seemed like an old soul.  He seemed to know things I didn't know.  He was so fragile, yet so strong.

A part of me was in denial.  A part of me was terrified.  How was I going to be a good mother?  How was I going to help him overcome the many difficulties ahead?

It seemed like I was barely able to take care of myself.  My life was far from perfect.  In fact, it was so far from perfect that I couldn't imagine what typical life looked like.

Yet I am responsible for his life.  I am responsible for his care.  I am responsible for his future.

He's made so much progress since then.  He is so much like any other kid.  Yet he is different.  His future is still uncertain.

I must not worry so much.  I must focus on the progress.  I must celebrate my son.
