Thru the Power of Prayer, Love, the Kindness of Strangers, and Faith... my son today is just a normal 15 year old boy (some very mild learning disabilities).

In that list above, you left out "extraordinary parents who never faltered in their belief and support of their son." The others you listed couldn't have done what they did without you providing the catalyst.Hope that doesn't make your dome blush.

The vast majority of that credit HAS to go to my amazing wife. Without her strength and perseverance, I fear I may have crumpled under all of it.We always did, and still do, set the bar high for our son...... you will NEVER hear the words "good enough" in this home.Mike, thanks for sharing such a personal story with perfect strangers (ok, maybe we aren't strangers) but your story about your son makes me appreciate the things that I have and to free my mind from worrying about what I don't have....Continued blessings to you and your family!
