I also have a son with ADHD along with being gifted and having a learning disability, with a few other wild cards thrown in. My younger son doesn't share all these characteristics, so at times the contrast is striking. I expect to touch on being a mother to a thrice-gifted son (and to one who may sometimes wish he were also so-blessed), but pages aren't about them. It's about where my gifts intersect with theirs in oh-so-sometimes-challenging ways. It's about the never ending act of finding new ways to cope and meet the demands of life. It's about dealing with the inevitable frustrations of spending hours working on something you shouldn't (like these webpages) and not being able to put it down. It's about uncovering the mystery and wonder of just how our, or at least my, brains work.
Perhaps my pages will help you, or at least give you comfort that you are not alone.
