Love Letter to New Special Needs Parents

I know your heart is breaking. Your nerves consumed by fear and worry, your breath stifled with grief.

Your hopes and dreams for this new life, a bird with wings spread, rising above clouds, the path with no boundaries, a view of it all, riding air currents through clouds and between rays of sun, a majestic bird with freedom to choose the flight path, now with tattered and broken wings.
