Histoire
With a reporter’s eye and an insider’s perspective, Eric Garcia shows what it’s like to be autistic across America. Garcia began writing about autism because he was frustrated by the media’s coverage of it; the myths that the disorder is caused by vaccines, the narrow portrayals of autistic people as white men working in Silicon Valley. His own life as an autistic person didn’t look anything like that.

Chika Jeune was born three days before the devastating earthquake that decimated Haiti in 2010. She spent her infancy in a landscape of extreme poverty, and when her mother died giving birth to a baby brother, Chika was brought to The Have Faith Haiti Orphanage that Albom operates in Port Au Prince. With no children of their own, the 40-plus children who live, play, and go to school at the orphanage have become family to Mitch and his wife, Janine. But at age five, Chika is suddenly diagnosed with something a doctor there says "no one in Haiti can help you with."

Histoire
Autism therapy typically focuses on ridding individuals of “autistic” symptoms such as difficulties interacting socially, problems in communicating, sensory challenges, and repetitive behavior patterns. Now Dr. Barry M. Prizant offers a new and compelling paradigm: The most successful approaches to autism don’t aim at fixing a person by eliminating symptoms, but rather seeking to understand the individual’s experience and what underlies the behavior. Rather than curb these behaviors, it’s better to enhance abilities, build on strengths, and offer supports.

Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER
With her popular blog, Finding Cooper's Voice, Kate Swenson has provided hope and comfort for hundreds of thousands of parents of children with Autism. Now, Kate shares her inspiring story in this powerful memoir about motherhood and unconditional love
When Kate Swenson’s son Cooper was diagnosed with severe, nonverbal autism, her world stopped. She had always dreamed of having the perfect family life. She hadn’t signed up for life as a mother raising a child with a disability.
At first, Kate experienced the grief of broken dreams. Then she felt the frustration and exhaustion of having to fight for your child in a world that is stacked against them. But through hard work, resilience and personal growth, she would come to learn that Cooper wasn’t the one who needed to change. She was. And it was this transformation that led Kate to acceptance—and ultimately joy. In Forever Boy, Kate shares her inspiring journey with honesty and compassion, offering solace and hope to others on this path and illuminating the strength and perseverance of mothers.

heartwarming
everyone who knows a child, has a child, or may someday have a child should hear what Kate has to say about the true love a parent should have for their child no matter what illness or disability they may have or whether they are so called normal. I've worked in the school system with special needs and in the main stream and often wish that parents in the main stream would put half the effort into their child that the parents of special needs put into their children. Kate shows how to fight for every child!

Feel seen and heard
As a mother who is currently awaiting diagnosis for her first son, I have never felt so seen and heard. Although our sons struggle in very difficult areas the parallels of feelings as mothers is uncanny. The worries and concerns but also the pure joy and happiness expressed can be extremely overwhelming. Listening to your hardships and crying realizing the oh so close to home feelings I have felt myself while simultaneously laughing as you tell light hearted stories of Cooper. Thank you Kate for writing this book, making me feel less alone, for spreading Autism Awareness, advocating for our children and for providing hope. When I look at my perfect son, I would never want to change anything about him but I often wonder why him? Why me? Why our family? And I instantly feel guilty but I now know I’m not alone in my feelings and they are okay. I hope this review finds you. I’m asking all my closest friends and family to read a copy because I so eloquently describes what it’s like to be a mother to a child with Autism. Thanks again Kate, I’m now following alone on Instagram, add another supporter to the list <3 Much Love ~ Haley

Not Just For Autism Parents
Everyone should read this book. What an incredible story of a mother's unwavering love for her child and a reminder that it's okay to experience and express a multitude of emotions when life doesn't turn out the way you'd planned. Would highly recommend to anyone.

I love Cooper's smile. He is very good at his speech generating device. Try Rapid Prompting Method. I believe he jas full potential to express himself by spelling. Always try one new thing.. as you said.
