“…after watching the video, I realized that we are just way too intense with him and slowing down and having a meaningful family life sounds like a good plan. Your story and your life lessons are going to be valuable tools for us as we bring our family out of crisis mode and begin to enjoy each other, the heck with what anyone else thinks (yes, we get the stares and the looks). So, thanks so much for what you have done. I am going to bed committed to making tomorrow a better day.” ~ Patty Thompson, a parent
