I read so much that is fascinating on this page I’ve always thought about just putting a “normal” title and anyone can literally ask anything and I’ll happily answer, but
Seeing as there is a lot of ex trauma, addiction and troubles amongst the readers, I’ve put what was and is the worst time of our lives, but as 13 years have gone by, we are at peace with it, however the story continues as our youngest is severely disabled with cerebral palsy and profoundly deaf.
Happy to answer anything about anything with life gone by and present day.
Think of myself as a pretty decent, hard working family man with an amazing wife and an incredible step daughter.

What does your daughter do during the day? School? or is she in a day program?
How do you think of the child you lost now? Do you think of them as maturing alongside their twin as they watch from the afterlife, or as a baby permanently, or something a bit less metaphysical? I’ve always been curious how people whose family members died very young envision their spirits much later.
What kind of disability does your daughter have?
How are you holding up, are you okay? I imagine that the series of events that you went through could not have been easy and left some scars.
My daughter is severely disabled as well due to a genetic disorder that occurred at random. She is only four and I struggle to cope with her (our) fate. How do you keep a hopeful attitude ?
When I worked inpatient, I had noticed rarely do couples who’ve had a child with traumatic injuries stay together. What would you say has kept your union strong?
What is your 2nd daughter disability that makes her severe and how long has she had it?
