Hi Sara,

I would be glad to talk to you any time if you have questions or concerns. Here is a place that might help,Evergreen Spina Bifida Group, Ed the leader is a great guy. As far as knowing when to let go well if you give your littleone a strong foundation and let her do things in her own way then I think that will help you and her. I didn't have that when I was growing up my parents wanted me to be normal. You may need to push her a little to.
