[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, here, thank you all for your words & ((hugs)). Her disability is ASD and intellectual disability due to genetic defect. I do pray and offer thanks for her each night as I truly believe she has taught me so much more than I will ever be able to teach her, but it still hurts, and I wish I could stop longing for a mini me that will never be. [/quote] Sending you love and prayers, OP. Your daughter is lucky to have you for a mom. It's more than okay to feel everything you're feeling. You shouldn't hate yourself. You have no reason to hate yourself. It sounds like you're not disappointed in DC, you're disappointed for her. And for yourself, and for the relationship you imagined you'd have. I hope you have a counselor or therapist you can talk to. I'm sure it can be hard to take time for that when it is very time consuming to have a SN child. But you deserve the support. [/quote]
