Welcome! I’m Anna, a woman in my 50s navigating life alongside a neurodivergent family. I share my experiences—ranging from the practical to the deeply spiritual—along with the challenges and opportunities that arise. My goal is to inspire peers by sharing insights I wish I could have offered my younger self. This space is dedicated to those of us who are neurotypical and live with neurodiverse individuals, as well as anyone seeking better ways to address life’s challenges.
Infinite Love. Spirituality is my anchor throughout this journey. Already, as a child, I had an intense longing for God. I remember walking through my parents’ vegetable garden and talking with God. Nobody taught me to do that, but here in the garden, God was so close to me. Facing the challenges of my own unique family, I became devoutly religious. I was holding onto my faith like a person in water clings to a piece of grass. Many times, I cried out to God for help. Through it all, I re-evaluated my religious beliefs. God isn’t limited to religion; He is infinite love, profoundly personal and present daily. Iven though I live alone, I am never alone; Jesus, my faithful companion, the Holy Spirit, the trustworthy teacher, and God, the Loving Father, go with me wherever I go.
Neurodivergence is a term used to describe variations in the brain. The term neurotypical (NT) refers to individuals connected to someone who is neurodivergent, such as a spouse, parent, partner, or caregiver. Neurodivergent conditions may include Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), including Asperger’s Syndrome/High Functioning Autism, Dyslexia, and Tourette’s Syndrome. One is not better or worse than the other; it’s the differences that form challenges.
