I wish you knew what it was like to walk a mile in my shoes.
I wish you knew the challenges I face raising a special needs family.
I wish you knew that I need help even though I don't ask.
I wish you knew how difficult and yet amazing my kids are.
I wish you knew how a random phone call could make my day.
I wish you knew how isolated and unimportant I feel.
I wish you knew how tired I am.
I wish you knew how much I hate being questioned, especially in front of my kids.
I wish you knew how completely overwhelming life is.
I wish you knew how much my kids miss you.
I wish you knew how much I miss you.
I wish you knew what it felt like to watch your kids struggle through life.
I wish you knew how heartbreaking it is to hear, "your child is Autistic".
I wish you knew what it felt like to be a special needs parent.
I wish you knew the sacrifices required to be a special needs parent.
I wish you knew the fear I have of the future.
I wish you knew what it feels like to lose everything.
I wish you knew how much I'd love to hang out, even though I can't.
I wish you knew how much I resent the fact that you never call unless you need something.
I wish you knew how much it hurts to know my kids don't remember your name because your never around.
I wish you knew that I cry at night because I can't do better by my family.
I wish you knew just how much you take for granted every day.
I wish you knew what it felt like to be me.
