@tommy My biggest challenge has been continuously fighting with loneliness, depression and toxic family at the same time. Thus, lost the meaning of life. Still fighting though.

i didn’t want to answer this, it’s always there unfortunately though.

biggest challenge, needs context. Poverty, violence, insecurity growing up, spurred be to be better, do better. Give my kids the life i did have.

i achieved putting myself in a position to provide that. Amazing relationship, security, good job, homeowner, money. Planned first child with so many hopes, dreams and foolish expectations.

Things didn’t go to plan and after emergency c-section my kid was born with not much brain left. Seizures, pump nj tube fed, partially sighted, bad hearing, told don’t expect much. It’s not what they can’t do but what they can. 

From hopes of giving a better life than mine, doing everything in my power to enable that, it’s reduced to, inability to sit, understand , swallow safely, communicate.. and independence and dignity… no. I’d not want to live like that yet I am forced to accept it and somehow see it as positive.

i am a powerless witness to my kid who’s growing into the progressively debilitating and painful body, unable to elevate problems let alone provide a meaningful life. A life all innocent kids should enjoy. 

I’m stuck with a inevitable future I want to escape and would give everything and anything to change… 

all that can be done is stay in the now, don’t look forward, don’t look back and try not t focus to deeply on the hear and now. Exist and say absent minded. 

A everlasting change i wish on nobody.
