Holding Hands
Holding hands" means a feeling of security and togetherness.
"Holding hands" means a feeling of security and togetherness. Whenever we feel low, sad or depressed, we need someone to talk and share our pains. Holding someone's hand is like giving a promise that all of us will never have to face the world alone.
We all DMD moms are sailing in the same boat and have to face a lot of challenges while taking care of our children. Being a DMD mom I often hold my son's hands at least for 10 to 15 minutes daily sitting in front of him smiling, talking and sharing my feelings. Slowly it became a habit and he started feeling cared, connected and relaxed. He shares almost everything with me and his elder brother. Normally these children as they grow up start keeping their pains to themselves but holding hands with a smile can do wonders. This effects their mental health of children as well.

It decreases the level of stress hormone (cortisol)and increases the level of happy hormone (oxytocin). A simple human touch with love can do miracles in stressful situations.
