## Caption

For every parent who is in the thick of those early days after your child's diagnosis, you are not alone. 🫶

Reflecting back after over 17 years, I can tell you that the overwhelm you're feeling right now does not last forever and you will find your way forward one step at a time.

Part Two coming soon because I could go on and on!

If you have an older child, what would you add to this list for a parent who is just starting out?
