I firmly believe that and some day you will understand that. For now I am an ear for you whenever you need it. Also remember that you eat an elephant one bite at a time. Deal with today not tomorrow. It won't be easy, nobody said life would be. Eli will be fine and so will you. Love him and remember being different isn't always a bad thing. The good Lord never puts more bricks in the wagon than the mule can pull. Your family is in my prayers and I know that Eli will be fine. God's speed.

Thank you sir. Different never means bad, it just means different. Your wisdom and experience will be very helpful. God bless you and your family.
