hilarious products for special needs parents

I read about the "Our Special Kids" website on our CHARGE list this morning and it made me laugh out loud. This is from their intro page:

Do you:

Celebrate when your son says “I hate you” because it’s a complete sentence?
Make a space in your daughter’s baby book for “first time swallowed a whole pill instead of mashing it up in yogurt?”
Know far more about pharmacology, neurobiology, and disabilities law than any layperson should?

My favorite is this t-shirt: "Welcome to Holland. Come on, I'll show you around." Special needs parents, you have got to check this out! Too funny! :)

charge syndrome

CHARGE syndrome is a recognizable (genetic) pattern of birth defects which occurs in about one in every 9-10,000 births worldwide. It is an extremely complex syndrome, involving extensive medical and physical difficulties that differ from child to child. The vast majority of the time, there is no history of CHARGE syndrome or any other similar conditions in the family. Babies with CHARGE syndrome are often born with life-threatening birth defects, including complex heart defects and breathing problems. They spend many months in the hospital and undergo many surgeries and other treatments. Swallowing and breathing problems make life difficult even when they come home. Most have hearing loss, vision loss, and balance problems which delay their development and communication. All are likely to require medical and educational intervention for many years. Despite these seemingly insurmountable obstacles, children with CHARGE syndrome often far surpass their medical, physical, educational, and social expectations.
