[grace girl]

I was a grown woman when I was dx'ed, and I was already doing the same things I'm doing now...I homeschool my kids, and I'm an artist. The only thing it has stopped me from is this: our church youth group is going on a missions trip to Trinidad next summer. I opted out because, though I wouldn't hesitate to travel to a foreign country with D, I don't want to do that while being responsible for 20-30 children who aren't my own. I imagine there are many here who wouldn't agree with me on this, but I take being responsible for other people's children very seriously.
