Today, Ellie met her first friend with AMC!
Her therapist called me while I was at the park with Will & Ellie playing after therapy to tell us that the family was in the hospital and had agreed to meet.
I was so very excited.
It's a bit surreal to me.
I first spoke to someone on the phone who is a mom of a kid with Will's syndrome when he was 2 1/2. We have never met anyone with a confirmed diagnosis the same as him.
Ellie is 1 month old and already we have met a little girl who lives near my parents (future play dates??) and is nearly her age! A is 2 months old.
There is something very powerful and bonding in meeting another mom who is walking a similar road as you. She gets it.
I'm so thankful to have met them and hope our girls can become great friends!
