When the Diagnosis Feels Like a Mountain | Autism Parent Encouragement Card, Rainbow Ribbons

For the parent who just heard the word autism and feels like the climb is too big.

Front: When the diagnosis feels like a mountain you can't climb.

A hand-painted mother and child touch foreheads, their hair flowing out in ribbons of terracotta, teal, marigold and plum under a soft dusk sky.

Inside message:
You don't have to climb it. You just have to take the next step. Make the next snack. Sing the next song. Give the next hug. The big picture is too big right now, and that's okay.
Minute by minute. Hour by hour. That's how mountains move, one pebble at a time. You've got this, even on the days you're sure you don't.

The left inside panel is left blank for your own handwritten note.
