Lizze,
You have given us so much. I wanted to show you how amazing I know you are. You are responsible for giving me my children. That is something I can never fully repay you for. Everyday you raise above all the pain you are in and you all that you have. You are a shining example of what a mother should be. Not only are you a mother but a special needs mother. I hope you realize how much the kids and I love you.
This is where I share the thoughts and feelings I experience while on the journey through life with our Autistic children. I'm very blunt and honest in this blog. I feel it's important for the world to know how Autism and Aspergers effects the entire family. I think it's important as a father to share my perspective with the world. As the blog title states I find myself "Lost and Tired" quiet often.
I want the fathers out there to know it's okay. I know how you feel. I think the fathers often times suffer in silence because they need to be the strong ones. We are human and our children suffer, it's okay not to be okay.
My goal is to increase Autism awareness by sharing our story. Our journey is not always a pleasant and quiet often depressing and difficult. However, we stick together and pull through as a family.
Please feel free to share your own stories, thoughts,feelings and experiences. Our lives are not easy but we don't have to go through it alone.
Computer Re-New (a Lost and Tired company). This is one of the ways we pay the bills. We have been self employed for 10 years. This is honestly out of necessity due to various health issues within the family.Lizze is a "stay at home mom". She is the strongest person I've ever met and I would be lost without her. She suffers from fibromyalgia and daily migraines but never complains about it. No matter how much pain she is in she always puts us first. She got hired as a writer for the Cleveland Examiner tohelp me support our kids. She is a very gifted writer and I'm very proud of her. Check out her articles by clicking on her picture. Let's get her some traffic :)
