I feel for you. I remember the day when our son was diagnosed, we were prepared for the worst, my mind was already set on what the diagnosis would be having done my own research online.

But when the words came out of the Developmental Pediatrician's mouth, my heart was still shattered and I found it very difficult to breath, our worlds collapsed. Maybe there was still a part of me hoping that the doctor would say something different. I felt the pain again after reading your post.

There is something about us special-needs parents that attracts onion-slicing ninjas lol.
