Would have liked to here that after loosing my wife and raising 8 kids alone but only herd from people I need to get on welfare and let the State raise the kids.
Never happened and happy to work my self to the ground to keep my family in food and a home.
Gotta feeling all you guys would do the same....
Thanks CF good words.

I'm proud of you Fred for doing what you did for your family. Some guys would have left and never looked back.
It's the same when you have a child with a disability. One of the parents will leave as they can't handle it which puts extra burden on the other parent.
My second cousin in the U.K. has Downs and his father was so embarrassed he left my cousin and the other two kids and has never been in touch since. that's over 45 yrs ago. David didn't ask to be born that way but it happens.
Kudos to you my friend and proud to call you my friend. Too bad there aren't more out there like you
