I Was The Child Nobody Believed In
falseI was born in the late ‘70s and my brother was too, we are 1.5 years apart. My dad passed away suddenly when I was 18 months old & my mom was 8 months pregnant with my little bro. My mom became a widow at 33. We moved in with my grandparents, my mom cared for them as their health significantly declined. After dad was gone, I stopped talking, walking & wanting to eat. My brother was potty trained before me. My regression had me in so many doctors offices, medical to psychiatry. I remember always struggling to catch up in school. Being called dumb. I had a difficult time holding still. I cried often, best I can explain, I had big emotions & no language to express them, having a meltdown was the only way to free me from feeling overwhelmed. My loved ones & teachers talked about my struggles in front of me, it felt like everyone lost hope. My mom fought to keep me out of special education. I wasn’t a high achiever throughout my academic journey. The people I loved expected me to fail.
Right now, I am a mommy of 2 adults that are both incredible human beings. I’ve worked in healthcare for almost 25 years, primarily as a registered nurse. In nursing school I maintained a 3.6 GPA while being a single parent to a 6 month old & 5 year old. I’m big on reproductive health & have started my own business. I am happy, so incredibly happy.
My brother was the one that was diagnosed with autism, when everyone thought it would be me. I am his legal guardian & his ride or die.
The ppl that doubted me are silent. Quiet as hell. I’m loudly celebrating myself & all that life has offered me. I celebrate all the children that society tries to leave behind, today & everyday.
“I continue to believe that if children are given the necessary tools to succeed, they will succeed beyond their wildest dreams.” -David Vitter
