Abstract	The author of this article, Lynne Glucoft, a self confessed chronic worrier, shares what she viewed as stressful events in her life before her son was diagnosed with autism, and then compares them to her present attitude toward stress. She explains that instead of feeling sorry for herself, and asking "Why me?" she has made a conscious decision to look at the situation as one that was happening for a reason. That decision impacted her life for the better because it put everything in her life into a new perspective, and has made her stronger. She also has decided to concentrate on the things in her life that are positive, and has developed a spirit of appreciation for her relationship with her husband, and finding ways to ensure that her son grows to become the best man he can possibly be. She concludes by saying that these days she finds very little in her life worth stressing over, and that as long as our children are happy and well, parents and care givers should relax and be happy also.
