[quote=Anonymous]We also have 2 stressful, intense jobs. We worked hard to get to this point and know that the income we are generating will help DS get the therapies he needs, as well as plan for his future. He's little now so we don't know what the future holds, although we are very optimistic, so he my need financial support his whole life. If one of us quit or took a lower paying job it would impact our ability to provide all this. We were in the same position as you a few years back. It was overwhelming and stressful on our marriage. It does get better. We have a great nanny, and all of our therapies come to our house, which was key. I can't drive all over the DC metro area, spending hours in traffic for a 30 minute therapy session where DS would scream or tantrum for over half the time. It was exhausting for all of us. Weekends are spent as a family doing fun things in the community or sports type things (trampoline park, etc). Hang in there. You're doing great. [/quote]
