Like Walking On Your Hands

By Susan Sammer Catalano

When two of your three kids are born with vast and varying special needs, you tend to become an object of fascination for some and pity for others. Your family might be seen as a project or a cause, occasionally a threat, an inspiration or a drain, but always as some kind of anomaly. Like Walking On Your Hands is a book about raising and loving special-needs kids, the similarities and differences of this life with those who have "typical" kids only, coaching and caring for them as they navigate their special needs while giving equal support to your typical kids, and the burdens and privileges that come with all of this. The book is not an advice-specific "how-to," but a window into the kind of life families like ours are made to lead in hopes of promoting understanding through honesty, heart and humor.
