As I hit the mid-year mark of writing this blog, I look back at the emotional journey that individually all of us have gone through and realize what some senior folks on this path had told me - it will get progressively easier as you start accepting a few things.
There is much yet to be done, but am happy to note that things are not as bad as I had feared myself. There have been things that he has done that he would not have otherwise, and a lot of things that he would have learnt at school that he is now behind in. But overall, I am happy to note that he has slept well along with all of us as an alarm has been eliminated from our lives. The challenge is to find a way to inculcate discipline in ourselves without any external force, and I have failed so far to do it for both myself and him. I really need to find a way, just like for everything else!
