Challenges and Blessings of having a special needs child

This is a collaboration with my friend Sylvia Phillips from the Channel "Faith, Hope and Love"
I just wanted to film a sit down video discussing what I see as a couple of the biggest challenges I've faced having a special needs child, and also counter that with some of the blessings that have come into my life because of my son. I hope to film more sit down videos in addition to vlogging so if you have any questions please drop them in the comments section.
THANKS YOU to Sylvia for sharing her story and her channel with us, The link for Faith, Hope and Love is Faith Hope and Love

About my channel.......
My middle son, Daniel John Hasselberger was born on November 22, 1997, with a rare brain deformity called Polymicrogyria. The deformity happened due to a virus called CMV, or cytomegalovirus. He has seizures, respiratory problems, can only eat by g tube, is in a wheelchair, can not speak, and has had countless surgeries and hospitalizations over his 17 years. We are a family of 5 from Sandy Hook, CT and this is our journey.
Every day is full of new things that we don’t expect. I am Julie, Daniel’s Mom. I left my full time career as an HR Director 11 years ago because Daniel needed me. The struggle, the sacrifices, the sibling love, and miracle after miracle.
Why did I create this channel? For support, to help other families dealing with the same diagnosis, to help me cope with depression and isolation, etc. Please leave comments and help us grow and develop this channel. Life is incredible, and I want to share our story.
