The story begins with the intuitive mother realizing the aloof attitude of the professionals attending to her daughter's birth was a symptom of prevailing attitudes when something "goes wrong." The anguish and denial is painfully described. The years of growth and acceptance are outlined as courage and tenacity become the ingredients necessary for a family's survival. The humane story of a mother's search to insure a better future for her child is complemented with valuable information about the physiological patterns that create the symptoms we see in cerebral palsy.
The format is concise and understandable. The reader will know what can and cannot be expected from a person with cerebral palsy.
