Hi Rivky,
Its Chana Sorah Danow here,(sweden-remember those days) your sister -in -law nechomi told me about this site. I also have a special child Boruch Hashem, mine (almost 5 year old boy) has a global developmental delay....
So I want to welcome you to this special world. Entry is quite difficult, you must have a special child....(or be a close relative or friend of one)
Until you have one, you barely know this world exists, but when you do, you find out how big it is, and how beautiful!!!!
I thank my son for giving me entry to this world. Imagine, without him I could have lived a whole lifetime and not known about this world at all.
I am so impressed by this beautiful site, it brings tears to my eyes.... Your son chose the right parents, you describe him as a fighter, its obviously in the genes.
Keep it up, let me tell you - it all pays off at the end.
I find it so interesting that a child that is officially is supposed to give us a harder/sadder etc life as everyone else sees it, gives such tremendous joy. For when they do reach a stage, the joy is much bigger then by other children. May you experience many such joys with lots and lots of progress Be"H and I have heard that the Rebbe told someone that special children (and their parents?) will be on the frontlines to greet Moshiach, Hope to see you there soon!!!
Warmly
Chana Sorah

chana sorah, thank you for those comments. Hashem should give everyone the kochos they need to do right by their children.

Thank you for the warm welcome to the exclusive world of Special Chidren. B"H we know that Mendele is blessed, and are honored to be his parents. Mendele will surely be up front when Moshiach comes!
