I have a MSW and MFA in Creative Writing. I have been trying to write about the convoluted illnesses and disabilities in my family including my (totally unintended and thank you for allowing me to know I am not the only parent who would not have children if I could see the future) two sets of twins. I have so much and am so close to the bones of my tales. My family story is a Chinese box tale of learning disabilities, ADHD/ADD, bipolar I, stage III kidney cancer, autism, speech delay, brain injury, celiac disease, spina bifida, asthma, bedwetting and related surgical infection, breast cancer, hysterectomy, and maybe an autistic gay son. This is not in order of importance! My writing has been published and has had the possibility of achieving breakthrough but my own health issues and the family's multiple health issues have made it an unlikely event. But I don't want to leave any proverbial stone unturned. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My children will thank you as well as the dogs. (Reference "Yankee Doodle Dandy") Thanks for your writing. It is wonderful and so anti-nihilistic. A great accomplishment in times like ours.
