Where have I been you might ask? Or perhaps not. Probably not....but it's time for my soul to be typed out once again. Eight (8) hours from now there will be a BIG change in our lives. How I wish it was a positive, exciting change. If you knew of it; you might feel sorry for us...but I don't want that. At all. Nope. It's a decision that, in the long run, WILL be positive for #2 Son. Well, we can hope.
He will not see it as we do. He will hate us. I recall periodic bouts of "hating" my own parents as a youngster. But mine was because I was grounded. His hate will be different. His will be deep, rage-inducing. Or maybe he'll crack and fold up into a blob of agony.
He is going to have to make it through a hellish season....one not many "normals" experience. To be brutally honest, I pray he survives it.
When #2 Son was 3, we would drive into town on Saturday to "play" with my Mom. I remember telling her, "I think I love him too much." She wisely said, "No, you love him just enough." He's been different since early, early on. Say 2 or 3 years of age. It's been a constant roller-coaster-life. For 17 years...
And, in 7 hours + 55 minutes, the roller coaster may stop for a while.

God moves in the most difficult situations. He is able in this one as well. You have a huge team of prayer supporters for you, your family and especially #2!
VaVa....love you, you are amazing.
Just wanted to tell you that. Praying for you this week...
Oh Vava it seems like I've known you for forever. and for forever my prayer has been, "this time it will work." also I am very naive when it comes to your situation. I just want to knock him in the head and say wake up kid, you have the two best parents in the world....who love you...who support you....who always catch you when u fall. See I don't have the parenting skills needed to cope. You are strong beyond my imagination. I pray for you and Gary, you are soooo deserving of God's blessings. xoxo Franco
