I am Julie Hasselberger.
They asked me for a "bio" and this is what I wrote. Today is Thursday, May 21, 2015
I am Julie Hasselberger. Mom of three children living in Sandy Hook, CT. I have a Bachelors degree in political science and an MBA with a concentration in Human Resource Management. In 2003 I left the full time corporate career world because my severely disabled child needed my attention, advocacy and care full time. I am outgoing, I love people, love music, and love God. I am a Christian and I believe that we have Hope through our saviour. Needless to say, my life is a daily struggle full of challenges that can be very overwhelming. I am always trying to get healthier, and that too is a tough battle as Daniel is just getting bigger. I love my children, Sarah, Daniel, and Thomas more than anything in this world. I have been married for 22 years to John Hasselberger, and marriage has its challenges dealing with differences in opinion and different personality issues. I've dealt with severe depression and anxiety for years, and I a true believer in "choosing happiness" NO MATTER HOW HARD.
I started vlogging regularly about a year ago to share my journey and my story. Its been a wonderful experience. My vlog is my main source of enjoyment these days, because I am capturing the daily life of my crazy family.
Life as a Mom to a severely disabled child is very isolating and lonely. You feel disconnected and on another planet all together. I cry ALOT but I laugh more.
I love to make friends... and its funny how I basically spend actual time with, none. But I have found so many friends who want to be there for me in the You Tube community and through my Special Needs support groups.
In life you never know what to expect. What matters most is love. It can be challenging when people who are closest to you dont "get you".... and the bills certainly have NO MERCY for people caring for disabled children in their own homes, giving up their lives for their children. Welcome to America.
Life is beautiful. Despite all of the negative people around us, the negative world we live in, we can choose to grab each moment and value it and love it. Live for now. Because the reality is truly this, all we have is what is now. The rest either is in the past, or in the future. One is gone, and the other is unknown. Love eachother now. Right now.
