#6 Do they really understand...

I have been wondering does my family REALLY understand what I go through with my daughter?? I mean do they understand how hard and sad it really is?? My daughter is going to be 3 in Dec and has just about NO way of communicating with me, her dad, her gym teacher, ANYONE!! Do you know how hard that is?! The other day I took my daughter to PetSmart to buy some pet stuff (obviously) and at the check out my daughter was trying to tell me something by grunting and pointing, the cashier said very rudely USE YOUR WORDS! I just looked at her and was like SHE HAS A BRAIN DISORDER. BITCH! Made her feel like an idiot but I wish I could have punch her in the face! I understand that she didn't know, but the way she said it was so rude! It's people like that, that make this even harder!

Also I have been trying to teach her the ABC's song, I know she isn't going to get it, but I just wish she would. At her gymnastics class all of the kids sing it, which again makes me cry all the way home =( She was just recently diagnoised with this maybe a month ago, so yes it is still hard. Obviously.

But I wonder if my family really knows. Come Dec when I visit them I really wish that she can spend as much time with my brothers who are both away in the USMC. I myself have not seen either one of them in OVER year, which in turn neither had my daughter. This makes me even more sad! ugh.... Its just a sad night I guess.
