Welcome to my blog – an exploration of the options and decisions involved in the care of my family, and particularly the care of my older son, Owen. Angus is occasionally featured here too, but for the most part, this forum is to explore the difficult medical and social decisions required to raise and support a child who has no way to make decisions or express preferences himself. For a more intimate portrait of our family, you can visit my photoblog.
For context, you may wish to start by reading the pages in ABOUT THIS BLOG listed on the right, starting with This Blog’s Mission.
You can leave public comments on any page or blog post. Or, you can send me a private message here.
Thanks for checking out this site! Let me know what you think :)
