He can't tell me what it's like, but by sharing your experience bloggers like you help me understand. Thank you so much for sharing. <br /><br />Also, I can share that nursing and carrying my son often left me with a very sore back and arms. I started going to PT myself to learn how not to injure myself. It is physically demanding for anyone!<br /><br />Your daughter is so blessed to have such a loving mother.

How does you...Thank you so much for the kind words!<br />How does your son's CP manifest itself?<br />I see by your username that you are a hockey fan=) Me too!! LOVE it. I used to live in Florida, so I was a panthers fan. I dont drive and the arena was 45 min away. It took me 3 hours and 3 different buses just to get to the arena, but it was so worth it!<br /><br />Hope you keep reading=)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00388055677412242283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561150648504133346.post-26338653933918421742012-08-29T10:53:17.031-07:002012-08-29T10:53:17.031-07:00Hi Dianne, so nice to hear from you!

I have an almost 2 year old son with CP and I love reading stories of how others deal with their challenges. Whether you mean to be or not, I think you're an inspiration.

In the pictures of you two playing on the floor, you can see the adoration shining in your eyes.

I have bilateral upper limb deficiency (shortened arms) and have just 6 fingers total, no thumbs...and my left arm cannot raise independently (yet i can hold a gal of milk with it! just not lift it UP)...Anyway, i have 4 kids ranging from 16 months to 13 yrs and have dealt with physical challenges as a "differently abled" mom...i can totally relate to what you said about Naama seeing you as perfect...i have often thought that about my children, that i am "normal" to them and perfect, in their early years at least. Well i just wanted to say "hi"...it's after midnight so i gotta get to bed, i look forward to reading more of your blog another time. - Alison Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00837774755647685059noreply@blogger.com
