See the able, NOT the label!
This is my son, His name is Erik. He was just a baby here, he is now nearly 17 and able!
Yes he has developmental delays but he is living his life just as anyone else would. Able and capable to try new things everyday. He has overcome many obstacles.
For those other parents who might feel hopeless. Don’t give up on hope. It can get better with time, patience, prayer, hope, and support. And to think 17 years ago, he died twice, was on life support, suffered seizures, and doctors didnt give him much chance of survival! Well we proved them wrong! And he isn’t a vegetable either, like they said he would be. We were told he would probably never talk, walk, or be able to eat normally. To God be the glory!
Keep hope, stand on your faith, and stay encouraged, even when the clouds are dark and the news is bad. The outcome is better than where it all starts.
Live with purpose.
Thank you for being here.
Your so is so awesome, and wow – what he went through! Only God can provide that kind of awesome – to Him be the glory!

Thanks for the compliment but I give ALL the glory to God. Without my faith in God, I don’t know where we would have been.
