Quotes by Jessica Slice (?)

“I hadn’t yet figured out that uncertainty is not the same thing as love.”
― Jessica Slice

tags: love, uncertainty

“I've wondered if I will ever feel as at home as I did at the beginning with K. Our days existed in a vacuum, removed from the future and the past. We didn't know when she would leave, so I let go of long-term worries. I had the individual moments, and they were delicious. Looking back, I can see that K and I loved each other immediately. I knew her. Every sound and wiggle and scrunch of her face was a language, and I was fluent. My early ease with K is one of the greatest gifts of my life.”

“I couldn't help concluding that disabled people with adequate resources and support are, as a group, particularly equipped to weather the adjustment to parenthood. Physical weakness and change do not scare us as they do others. We have spent years decoupling joy from physical or mental function.”
