A blog by MEWSie ELLEN SEIDMAN, To The Max, won Best Special Needs Blog in thebump.com’s Mommy Blogger Awards. Writes Ellen: “I’ve been doing my blog, To The Max, for just over a year now. It’s a blog about life with my little boy, Max, who had a stroke at birth that resulted in cerebral palsy. I started the blog because I thought it would be cathartic. I also wanted to inspire parents of babies with delays and special needs because those can be the hardest years. Since starting the blog, I’ve met hundreds of moms with kids who have special needs. I’ve gotten amazing support, laughed a lot and learned a lot, too; one of my blog readers told me that Duke University was doing stem cell infusions for kids with cerebral palsy. We did that for Max this summer.
