Aching arms

Friday’s here, so it’s time for a new episode in the Different Dream vlog series for parents of kids with special needs. Though if you’re not a parent, you are welcome to stick around for a peek at what it’s like to raise children with special needs and disabilities. This post is the last one in the diagnosis section of  A Different Dream for My Child: Meditations for Parents of Critically or Chronically Ill Children.

It’s called “Aching Arms,” and I had to record it two times before I could get through it without crying. The memory of holding our baby without a single tube or wire makes my eyes fill with tears every time. If you get teary at stories like that, grab a tissue before you watch the video below.

You can watch the “Aching Arms” vlog post at DifferentDream.com.
