But, if you’ve got a child with special needs, those needs don’t just stop even though the world seems to have shut down.
For a time, it made sense to press pause on things until we could get a handle on the virus and figure out how to flatten the curve. Now, several months later, we’ve got to figure out how to resume living in the midst of a very contagious illness that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.
