It is powerful and moving to read about the journey of your family. You, Laura, Paul, her medical team, the support from the Public school system there, and the extended family/support network. You are an incredible advocate and mountain-moving mother. I am grateful to know you, even if only from a distance through Substack. Thank you for sharing the fullness of Laura with us as well as the fullness of your experience. You are a beautiful and generous writer and artist.

Your advocacy was stellar! Laura found moments of joy after being so discouraged because you had strength and courage. You took the leap to make the change and thankfully found others that cared and supported you. I am envisioning Laura as I read your post. I miss her as well. Thank you for sharing these moments and memories. 💜

Mike and Doreen were both amazing. Mike's response could have been so different. How wonderful. These are exactly the kind of folks we all want caring for our kids!
