Share Your Story - Connect The dots

---

​Teacher me…

Had the cutest ABC dot to dot puzzles…used them with beginning readers…a fun way to practice the alphabet…but not as easy a task…as one would think…

Learned early on…to work on the puzzle as a teacher student team…otherwise overzealous dot finders…would forgo the use of the alphabet…and try to finish the puzzle by eye…which often…resulted in connected dots…that made no sense…

And so it is…this old gal…trying to connect those dots…for that daughter of hers…ruled out the most concerning…but still don’t have answers…

Taking steps…moving forward…but the progress seems so slow…Mama me…wants the whole picture…wants that sweet gal of hers…to feel like herself again…

Was blabbing away…working on that aching back of mine…that PT suddenly abuzz…she had similar symptoms…similar testing…shared the steps experts follow…the way a diagnosis is made…

And so it is…in life…when you feel that pull…to share your story…maybe…just maybe…the one there to listen…holds the key…to coloring in…the whole picture…
​
And that daughter of mine…agrees…
