I'd like to ask a question - for any of you terrific parents who may respond - do you spend much time or energy dealing with the "why?!" part of your children's disabilities? I know you have to wonder at times, but do you spend much time researching the possible causes, etc.? I seem to have dealt much better than my kids' Dad has, with the guilt issues that every parent has when they lose a child. My ex is convinced our daughter developed childhood cancer because of his work in a local refinery. I stopped researching neuroblastoma a few years ago, although I did try to research it a lot for several years. Our situation is a bit different of course, because we no longer had her here to focus all of our energy on, but I would really like to know how you guys deal with this part of your kid's disabilitites. Thanks.......
