When I dealt with the diagnosis and treatment of early-stage breast cancer in the summer of 2008,I would occasionally feel down and sorry for myself, but life has a way of giving you a wake-up call: One day, I saw little boy in a wheelchair being wheeled out of the medical office building near the local hospital-he obviously had progeria. Another day I saw a grandmother with her grade-school age grandson and her teenage granddaughter. The granddaughter wore a head scarf to cover her hairless head - she was undergoing chemotherapy. There were many other days like this during that summer, including several people I knew with cancer who wouldn't have the good prognosis that I did. Nothing is harder than facing the fact that your child does not have perfect health and probably will never be perfectly "normal",whatever that means. "Wheels" inspires everyone who faces those challenges of dealing with a child/children who have special needs and reminds us all to live life to the fullest. God bless her - and you for being such a good friend to her!LC in Hawktownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-87889995031579774432009-10-08T20:59:07.683-05:002009-10-08T20:59:07.683-05:00Happy birthday, and kudos to Wheels!

I firmly believe they have much more going for them than against them, definitely more than we have going for us in so many ways...<br />Have a great week! I hope to be able to free myself from these kids in my home who keep calling me "mom" long enough at some point this week to make the rounds to you all!Julie Dunlaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465664964573137565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-62760941538993276792009-10-08T08:25:05.368-05:002009-10-08T08:25:05.368-05:00I received strict instructions from my sister to r...I received strict instructions from my sister to read your blog this week. I now understand why!<br /><br />I hope you enjoyed your birthday Julie. Both you and "wheels" look fabulous, what a pair of hot little tamales you both are!<br /><br />Jennifer, your unswerving loyalty and devotion to your boys is laudable. You truly are inspirational!<br /><br />It intrigues me as to why the incidence rate of ASD seems to be on the rise in the USA? <br /><br />Good luck with the marathon! :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06000232992024085251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-24646534413730680692009-10-06T00:57:04.031-05:002009-10-06T00:57:04.031-05:00Great work, Jules, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!Great work, Jules, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794712479594188124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-42609880625783023092009-10-05T19:46:45.573-05:002009-10-05T19:46:45.573-05:00What a wonderful story.

I had been feeling very sorry for myself juggling my day-to-day demands and getting ready to move house. My usual support team are all MIA and it's times like these you wish they were here! Reading your blog this week has given me strength and a huge reality check!<br /><br />What a delightful girlfriend you have! I really admire and respect her strength and determination. I was truly humbled by her stories. Her 3 little boys are so blessed having her as their Mum.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-14751953549480401952009-10-05T13:20:51.136-05:002009-10-05T13:20:51.136-05:00What a great story, and I just happen to have a co...What a great story, and I just happen to have a cowbell, so let me know when she runs her marthon, and I'll make sure to ring that bell!!<br />Happy Birthday - you make Monday's better!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773028880824992640.post-84533496491780663552009-10-05T09:15:02.591-05:002009-10-05T09:15:02.591-05:00Jules...you never disappoint!
