Let's be honest, it's hard enough to find time to take care of ourselves properly when our children are healthy -- can you imagine how hard it must be when  your child has a chronic illness? How *do* you find time to take care of you when one or more of your children has extensive needs? 

I recently heard an important interview on this subjectd on one of my favorite podcasts - Mom Talk Radio. The interview is with Amy Baskin, author of "More Than A Mom"  Living a full and balanced life when your child has special needs. Here is a link to where you can download the show. It is the  episode from 7-15-06 called "Weight-Wise Summer Survival: Kids' Healthy Traveling Snacks." If you have a child with special needs, or have a friend in that situation, please listen pass on this important interview!
