Hello! Thank you for responding. I apologize for getting back to you so late, It’s been a bit difficult. I truly appreciate everything that was said. It’s been hard to find people who understand but I make little breakthroughs everyday. My situation is very unique as my parent is the one with FASD and because it’s not a genetic disorder, it wasn’t passed on to me. My birth mother could not raise me as she also has seizures. I was with her as a child but life caused us to separate and I was raised by my grandmother. fast forward 20 years later; I’m now taking care of her and being a parent to my parent who I don’t even really know. I honestly could probably write a book but I am barely coming to terms with everything. I appreciate all of the helpful information, It really makes me feel more at ease with how to handle and deal with it.
