Through Their Eyes: Raising a Child Through Autism
A heartfelt and empowering guide for parents navigating autism, neurodiversity, and everything in between.
Are you a parent who just heard the words "autism spectrum disorder" for the first time? Do you find yourself overwhelmed, lost, and desperately searching for answers, support, and hope? Through Their Eyes: Raising a Child Through Autism is the compassionate companion you didn't know you needed-written by a mother of six, four of whom are autistic, this book is packed with raw honesty, lived experience, and unwavering love.
From the early signs of autism to navigating IEPs, therapies, meltdowns, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with raising an autistic child, this powerful parenting memoir and guide shines a light on the moments no one talks about: the grief, the guilt, the unexpected joy, and the fierce advocacy that follows.
