So what did I discover? Only what matters most, and what should matter most, to all humanity. I have also discovered strengths within myself I never knew I had – patience, unconditional love, empathy, a determination to fight for the rights and needs of my son and others – and, finally, humility in the face of impossible demands, when I eventually had to surrender my beloved but unruly, very tall and very strong son to full-time professional care.
