Hello, my son is 13 and has CP. We never had counselling as a family, and 2 years ago I had a breakdown. I am now seeing a counsellor who's really helping me. As a result of that, I started studying counselling myself and would like in the future to help parents who have a disabled child and siblings as well. Who thinks it is a good idea? who has received that type of support during their journey? we were never offered it by the way ... thanks for your thoughts. Happy weekend. Caroline
