Let’s Try That Again!

I had many view for someone who had only just begun their blog, and after looking for my blog and finding some unknown (to me) website bearing the same name, it made sense. So, I’m no longer going to use The Daily Moan.

Where was I?

I’m a mother on the dark continent, right at the bottom. I prefer anonymity because of my relatives. They are unloving, adoption-hating fake christians, so the less they know about me, the better. And specifically, the less they know about my health that they don’t care about, and my children’s struggles, the better.

I have a large number of children, many of home are neurodivergent. I hope I wrote that correctly! This will be my space to vent and to share. To celebrate and to rejoice. Hopefully, any other mom who comes this way and has a child or children with my children’s issues will find hope. What I don’t like is causing pain to mothers whose children’s abilities are extremely limited. I know how painful it is when you know that though your child has that same ‘label,’ they won’t have that same success story. For me, whose autistic children also have global developmental delay, the miracle I will celebrate won’t be the same as the one someone like maybe, Greta Thunberg’s mother will celebrate. I hope I never cause pain. I hope this blog is either found by people who have totally different problems but want to know how others cope, or by those whose children are less limited than mine are.

As for myself? I have a few health problems, and ankylosing spondylitis. In the next few posts, I’ll share how I came to that diagnosis.Things here in A—ca are very different to those in the Western world. Or, to be specific, the supports I’ve seen in Britain aren’t at all even close to what we have here. I feel like we’ve been forsaken.

Anyway, I had a bad night-lots of joint pain- and I’m feeling terribly sleepy so I’ll end this post here before I write something totally unintelligible!
