A Journey For Avery

A look.
A gesture.
A sound.
A change in behavior.
When words aren't an option, we have to learn to listen differently.

From the time my son was first diagnosed everyone has encouraged me to find community and get to know other moms who share our experience.

That was one of my main goals with this page, in addition to sharing our story, sharing education about treatments we have personally used, hopefully being an advocate, and creating relatable content.

A year into managing this page I can safely say I see why people don’t do this. I see why people don’t share their stories. I see why people keep to themselves.

Creating this page was the first thing I had been truly excited and passionate about in a really long time. But the longer I do this, and the larger the page gets, the more I’m discovering that I don’t think I’m cut out for this.

The negatives are becoming overwhelming. And I’m so so bummed. I put so much time, work, and energy into building this page. I was so excited about it.

I thought I would be good at, but turns out I was wrong again. I had already done the whole keep to yourself thing. I was a pro at it. But it wasn’t working. I somehow became delusional enough to give this a try. It’s not working either. Might as well do what you’re a professional at.

I’ve been so lost for so long, it was nice to finally feel like I had some direction….but now I’m back to square one. Lost, with no one to blame but myself.

How do you know where to turn, when there’s nowhere to turn?

Maybe this is just a moment of weakness and I’ll give it another shot down the road. I hope so anyway, but who knows.

Thank you to everyone that has followed along.

See you soon, hopefully 🫶🏼
