I am a single mother of 2 lovely boys who are 6 and 8 years old.  They both have autism and my youngest has down syndrome and is learning to be verbal. I am a Baha'i, from the Baha'i Faith and I have always felt my children were a blessing and the loves of my life. I work full time as a lawyer.  I have no support but I keep going and working hard each day.  I have 6 degrees and a phd in Law and went to Cambridge University.  I have had many people help in wonderful ways.  I am so happy and lucky I have my boys.  We live with a service dog and 2 cats.
