One of the things many special needs parents are lacking is a friggin instruction manual for their often times, quite complicated children.

When it comes to Gavin, I find myself in desperate need of a goddamn instruction manual.
With everything he has going, he’s so complex and so unique that no one can really tell us what to do. For example, the issues he’s having with his heart rate and blood pressure are serious and yet because what he has is so incredibly rare, no one can tell us what do.
