Comments of parents:
After her first time one parent said,
Rekindled my hope, re-energized me, gave an opportunity
to see and be part of a support that is infectious.
From another parent,
I
got good info on everything, a lot of stress off my shoulders
from a week end [away].
Getting together with other parents of children with disabilities brings a
sense of normalcy
to our life when the rest of our days fell so abnormal.
I liked how families have a way to learn they are not alone.
