My child was recently diagnosed with a developmental disability, where do I go from here? I need help with my son after school hours; he has many issues and requires a lot of care. Who can give me assistance with that? All the equipment and special devices for my daughter are very costly. How will I be able to cover themany expenses? I am in desperate need of a vacation, yet I do not have where to leave my child with disabilities. Does that mean I can’t go? My children are embarrassed of their sibling who has delays, how can I help them cope with these feelings? Caring for a child who has developmental disabilities requires a lot of time and attention.
