I have to testify! 🙌😭
Special needs parents, you'll understand why this is such a big deal.
When Dillyn was little, he used the same sippy cup for YEARS. It was the only cup he would drink from, and if we even tried to switch it out, it would trigger major meltdowns. It had to be that exact cup.
Because he used that sippy cup for so long, his teeth began to project outward significantly. It looked similar to what you might see in a child who used a pacifier for many years. On top of that, going to the dentist was incredibly difficult.
For years, we couldn't get dental work done because he wasn't able to sit still and would become overwhelmed.
As he entered his teenage years, my heart would break. I honestly thought his teeth would stay that way forever.
But let me tell you how good God is! 🙌
Today, Dillyn not only gets his teeth cleaned every six months, but he also gets X-rays and all the dental care he needs. Even more amazing, he goes back with the hygienist BY HIMSELF🎉
About seven months ago, we decided to visit an orthodontist to see if there was any hope of correcting his teeth. They recommended Invisalign.
Friends, he has been wearing Invisalign for SIX MONTHS with absolutely NO issues! 😭🙌 His teeth are straightening beautifully, his confidence has risen tremendously and he actually enjoys going in for his checkups.
I have been so excited that I've found myself walking around the orthodontist's office telling anyone who will listen how good God is!
Some people may not fully understand why this is such a huge victory, but special needs families know. This isn't just about straight teeth. This represents years of prayers, breakthrough, growth, courage, and God's faithfulness.
What once seemed impossible is becoming reality right before our eyes.
I must testify!
You guys, God is so, so good! ❤️🙌
"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think..." Ephesians 3:20
Keep praying, keep believing! Keep your eyes on HIM!
