About Erin

I am a mother of three boys...16, 12, and 8 years old. I have been married for 17 years and never in a million years thought my life would have so many challenges and so much love as it does now. My youngest son was born with Spina Bifida. His two big brothers are his role models and biggest fans. He recently started catheterizating so we are still trying to get the handle on everything. He recieves his therapies at school and has a para (child specific or aid). As the mom of a amazing child you have to be creative, brave, quick thinking, and ready for a battle....because this child is yours to protect, nuture, console, and inspire! Unfortunatly the world we live in isn't always kind or even respectful to the disabled...but you have to make people see that a challenged child is an AMAZING child. These children maybe different but they are still very much children and must be treated with the same respect and love as any unchallenged child.
