Okay hoping my title can make sense. I wanted to post on the thread on
success but I'm not BP. I come and post for support because your all so good at this and I have family that is BP. So I thought I would start this thread and just ask what you need life to be at this point in your life. 1. First I need it to continue to show me where I can help others with their kids and school issues. a. One of the most biggest things on this list for me though, is to be able to give parents a overview of our new Indiana state law. So when my asthma, coughing has started to show back up its been very discouraging for me. But I am working through this the best I can. Just last night, I had a major break through for me. I started having a coughing, attack and couldn't seem to stop. But I had one of my trained parents there helping me. So she took over the training with some of the parts that fit into her own unique situation. It made it work for me. It looked like I was going to be able to come back in and continue without worrying about the coughing. But no not 5 more minutes into my talking it started again. So once again, she and another parent took turns talking through things. The other parent has some major issues that need addressed. And my parent has technically been assigned as of last night. To be her RPR, which means a Regional Parent Resource. It also helped that besides this family we had only one other mom. And this mom I've worked with before. So she was more than willing to wait on me to get through my problem. Its been so frustrating to break out coughing when your talking to a group. But finally last night. I didn't have to depend on a co-worker. But I could depend on a parent volunteer who had helped me set this training up. And the really big thing is she felt wanted and needed too. So its been a nice we thanks to the fact that the weekend was a good Special needs fair too. Donna |

Dear Donna,
That coughing can be a struggle and certainly frustrating. But seemed like you made the meeting work anyway. It must have been very nice to have a parent take over for you. The parent has the info ( and even some presentation skills it seems like) because of you. So how would you call the evening successful? M. |

Yes Mari, thats exactly what I called the evening successful.
It was so nice to know that it could go so well without depending on a co-worker from another area. Just depending on one of my own volunteers. Donna |

I know that I want to become me. Just getting my mind set ready to do something about it and knowing where to go is the problem. I think I need to develop the nerve and will to overcome these fears, or what obstacles people might place in front of me.
I want to not be afraid anymore. I want the courage to be myself, and learn to accept people's rejection without hanging my head in shame. I want to learn to have a higher sense of self-worth, to realize that I'm okay.

I have to tell you that you are very much needed and considered a success here to me. I came start to this thread first because I saw that you had said something on it. And I wanted to see what you had to say. I've been finding that there are so many things that I enjoy reading that you say. Its been so much a need to find your words. So continue to write to us. And know that you are successful and we want you around. Donna |
