This book is not another sad story about autism. When Galen was diagnosed with autism at age 4, we were told: "There are no miracle cures. What you see is what you get. And when he gets to about 12, you may have to consider an institution."
This book is about your child and learning to make informed choices with confidence. Parents have enough to cope with; doctors, hospitals, siblings, ignorance, medication and much more. I have found knowledge to be the key, to learn all you can and not be afraid of the truth.
This book is for those people who need to empower themselves by learning about what kind of therapies are available. My reason for putting this book together was to produce a resource of information so that you, the parents, can make informed choices about your child's needs.
These are our children and for
their sakes we need to know everything we can about their condition and just
what our options are to help them on their difficult journey to
freedom.
