Chaos! Sleeplessness! Fear! Joy! These words could be used by any parent to describe their experience of parenting. But how do you survive when you find yourself in the unexpected category of ‘special needs’ parent?
This book details the journey of Andrew and Rachel Wilson when they found themselves parenting two autistic children. But it’s so much more! I think they put it best by describing it as ‘a book about spiritually surviving and thriving when something goes horribly wrong’. So, whether parenting a special needs child or not, this book has something vital to say to us all.
