My turmoil

I am always level headed and have very little problems with problems. "So what do we do now!!!!" think of something and start doing it.

I never thought that having a child with Asperger Syndrome would in pack my life so much, as I battle to come to terms with it and where I fit in .  Where do I go from here how  do I  make sense of another world
but I am only allowed to peep throuht the key hole.

I do not understand how she think I can only see that she is unhappy and I can do very little to make it better.  There are days that things are better but lately she is battling to cope with all the changes and changes are not good for Aspies.

My art heart is telling me to do things to make it better for me but maybe it is not the things that people want to see out there. 

We've packed 400 kits in the last 3 weeks and I did not have time to do what I need to do the little I do is not enough to feed my soul.

Melani, as jou 'art' die ding is wat jou siel voed - doen so voort!! Onthou, ons leef in 'n harde wêreld, en ongelukkig is dit so dat ons onsself moet oppas, want niemand anders gaan ons oppas nie, net die Here. Doen wat goed is vir JOU. En onthou, jy kan nie 'n goeie ma vir enige een van jou kinders wees as jou eie siel nie gevoed is nie. Ek weet, ons wil so graag net die beste mammma's vir ons kinders wees, maar in die proses skeep ons onsself so af.
Daarom wil ek jou sommer net bemoedig vandag en sê pas jouself op, voed jou siel met dit wat jy nodig het. Dit maak van jou 'n beter mens.
En moenie oor jou 'art' dink oor wat mense wil sien nie. Doen net jou eie ding om jou siel te voed.
Het jy al by 'n ondersteuningsgroep vir Asperger mamma's aangesluit?
My niggie se seun het ook Asperger. Laat weet my as jy met haar wil praat. Sy woon in Pta.
Liefde, ingrid
