our son is moving to boarding school on Monday...
so mixed emotions... a bunch of thoughts running through my head... I can't seem to get going with all that needs to be done before Monday... I'm scared I'll cry my eyes out once I've started.

please can I ask for some gentle but tight hugs? I feel I need them...
Thanks for this!

You are a very brave and very loving momma.

Know my friend you are not alone
I walk this path at your side
Fear not there will be tears to shed
When the time is right inside your head
I know that you are so scared
And wondering how all of this will work
But never wonder if only and l should have
Because YOU my dear dear friend have made one of the hardest decisions a mother can have to make
You look at what is best for your son and his future.............. truely admirable and courageous...................l will be here for you any time night or day as you walk this hard path
Never alone....call me when you need me
lean on me when you feel tired and weak
Know that l am always here for you all

Make peace with yourself. To love your son so much is inspiring. I hope he finds his experience away from you one of growth and meaningfulness. May he always know how much you care.

I hope that you will find this as my son's friends family did when they took their 8 year old to a boarding school for autistic children....
they found it to be the best thing that ever could have happened to the whole family.
It wasn't easy, for sure, but in the long run for all the siblings and the parents and especially the 8 year old -- it was the healthy thing to do.

My heart is with you today and always.
