Sometimes Life Can Change!!!!

I wanted to talk about changes that alter our lives due to disabilities. I love it when I get emails from moms seeking advise about there children....Wow that makes me feel so good. I'm speaking from my heart today about our children. Many of you know that when you come by to visit my blog it is mainly focused on children and seniors...WHY...because they hold my passion. I believe God gave me this passion for children, seniors for a reason. The reason being is to help them in every way I can.


Lately I have come across a lot of children who are experiencing life altering changes due to a disabilities. This is such a difficult time for the parent but most of all is a very difficult time for the child. We as parents must not be selfish we must understand that yes this altering life changing situation may have change for you but it is the child who has truly been affected the most.


I want every child to understand they are not alone there are millions of children to this day who are experiencing the same concerns , some are in different medical areas.


You see disability comes in many forms it is classified as an impairment, be it physical or mental, which limits one's activities.

There are many ways to categorised disability (ie cognitive, physical, mental, learning, social) sometimes by genetic.

There can be multiple disabilities at birth, or sometimes a combination of acquired and genetic.

Brain Injury, ADD/ADHD, Alzheimer's, Depression,Fibromyalgia. Hearing Impairment,Motor Neuron Disease, Quadriplegia etc.

I can only say to anyone who has found themselves in a life changing situation ...DON"T GIVE UP...NOR GIVEN IN. I want every child to know that they are just as important as the next child. I say find the inner child in your children find that passion that they have within themselves it's there we all have it. Don't sit around wasting time saying why, shoulda, coulda, woulda...those are the answers we will never get.

Make a change in your life enjoy it to the fullest find things that will make them proud to be different. Yes we are different, I say we, because I too suffer from a disability might not be as bad as those I have come across, but it has altered my life also. I have since taken my other gifts that God has given me and shined in those areas.

Keep there spirits up, find ways for them to make a difference in there life as well as others who suffers from a disability.

1) Allow them to visit other children who have been affected.

2) Show them ways of making certain crafts for others, being it to be sick children or adults and watch the glow on there faces.

3) Allow them a say in there life, this will allow them to feel as though they have some control.

4) Acknowledge there feelings......ALWAYS!

5) Give them Hope if nothing else.

6) Daily Interacting is a must with family and friends.

7) Help them to face there fears. (start off slow with this)

8) Talk,Talk,Talk

9) Hug,Hug,Hug

Last but not least....Never give up on them....love them for who they are....help them to love themselves know matter what and remember God is always with us all.

This is just my opinion I'm not a psychiatrist and I do not claim to be however I do have many many years in the medical field nursing/caring for patients.

Until next time: God Bless
