6 years ago today we were having our last child free evening.
6 years ago we thought we knew.
6 years ago we thought we understood.
6 years ago we thought we’d be some of the lucky few with a seemingly unaffected child.
6 years ago we slept.
6 years ago trauma was a stranger.
6 years ago we’d barely thought about FASD – we did go to an evening training on it.
6 years ago we’d not thought much about CPV.
6 years ago we didn’t know how much rage a small body can hold.
6 years ago we didn’t understand the difference between a meltdown and a tantrum.
6 years ago we’d read lots, but not appreciated what it meant.
6 years ago I didn’t know how much we would have to fight to get support for our boy(s).
6 years ago I didn’t know some of my now closest friends.
6 years ago tomorrow we moved a boy and changed his world.
