How do you ever come to terms with the news that your darling child isnt quite 'perfect'.....?
My partner and I have just been given the devastating news that our son has a very rare and serious form of epilepsy which will impede his development possibly to the extent that he may never walk or talk.
He is the most relaxed,chatty little boy but all these skills he already had may be lost!
I have alot of epxerience with special needs and am a social worker myself so people automatically think that i will cope and take this al in my stride but I feel like my world has just collapsed.
I know I need to be strong for my partner and my son and also my family but when will the tears stop?
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.

How do you get through.........?
