I want my child to get the help she needs as soon as possible. Asking for help is nothing to be ashamed of.

Know that these feelings have nothing to do with how much you love your child nor are they any reflection of the kind of parent you'll be.

Being a "late bloomer" is just a part of my identity: it's kind of who I am. And it also ties into this whole journey I'm currently on.

Near the top I placed the word "happy," most likely subconsciously in that location, because, above all, isn't that the goal?
