About this ebook
I'm just an average guy. I expected to live an average life. This is the story of how I dealt with the disabilities of three of my children and the developing mental illness of my wife. I want to encourage people living through similar challenges to keep going. I learned to navigate the system and get the help I needed for my family. I hope some of what I learned can be helpful to others. Everything is a process.
