Book Synopsis I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust by : Valerie Gilpeer
Download or read book I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust written by Valerie Gilpeer and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable memoir by a mother and her autistic daughter who’d long been unable to communicate—until a miraculous breakthrough revealed a young woman with a rich and creative interior life, a poet, who’d been trapped inside for more than two decades. “I have been buried under years of dust and now I have so much to say.” These were the first words twenty-five-year-old Emily Grodin ever wrote. Born with nonverbal autism, Emily’s only means of communicating for a quarter of a century had been only one-word responses or physical gestures. That Emily was intelligent had never been in question—from an early age she’d shown clear signs that she understood what was going on though she could not express herself. Her parents, Valerie and Tom, sought every therapy possible in the hope that Emily would one day be able to reveal herself. When this miraculous breakthrough occurred, Emily was finally able to give insight into the life, frustrations, and joys of a person with autism. She could tell her parents what her younger years had been like and reveal all the emotions and intelligence residing within her; she became their guide into the autistic experience. Told by Valerie, with insights and stories and poetry from Emily, I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust highlights key moments of Emily’s childhood that led to her communication awakening—and how her ability rapidly accelerated after she wrote that first sentence. As Valerie tells her family’s story, she shares the knowledge she’s gained from working as a legal advocate for families affected by autism and other neurological disorders. A story of unconditional love, faith in the face of difficulty, and the grace of perseverance and acceptance, I Have Been Buried Under Years of Dust is an evocative and affecting mother-daughter memoir of learning to see each other for who they are.

Download or read book Intelligent Love written by Marga Vicedo and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the History of Science Society's 2022 Davis Prize How one mother challenged the medical establishment and misconceptions about autistic children and their parents In the early 1960s, Massachusetts writer and homemaker Clara Park and her husband took their 3-year-old daughter, Jessy, to a specialist after noticing that she avoided connection with others. Following the conventional wisdom of the time, the psychiatrist diagnosed Jessy with autism and blamed Clara for Jessy’s isolation. Experts claimed Clara was the prototypical “refrigerator mother,” a cold, intellectual parent who starved her children of the natural affection they needed to develop properly. Refusing to accept this, Clara decided to document her daughter’s behaviors and the family’s engagement with her. In 1967, she published her groundbreaking memoir challenging the refrigerator mother theory and carefully documenting Jessy’s development. Clara’s insights and advocacy encouraged other parents to seek education and support for their autistic children. Meanwhile, Jessy would work hard to expand her mother’s world, and ours. Drawing on previously unexamined archival sources and firsthand interviews, science historian Marga Vicedo illuminates the story of how Clara Park and other parents fought against medical and popular attitudes toward autism while presenting a rich account of major scientific developments in the history of autism in the US. Intelligent Love is a fierce defense of a mother’s right to love intelligently, the value of parents’ firsthand knowledge about their children, and an individual’s right to be valued by society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parenting Like a Ninja is an authentic discussion of the complexity faced by working autism moms, with clear steps to increase energy and productivity in all areas of work and life. As a mommy of a child with autism, the daily reality of food wars, tantrums, a steady variety of body fluids, erratic non-sleep, and the revolving door of therapists is just exhausting. Autism moms keep it together, but sometimes, they just want the relentless pace of chaotic activity to stop so they can figure out the rest of their life, move ahead with their professional dreams, and just be more productive. In Parenting Like a Ninja, Faith Clarke walks moms through well-established principles of psychological well-being and thriving to create balance and energize their professional productivity, so they can build more of what they have been looking for professionally, all while being able to nurture their child’s well-being.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perspective of this collection of poems is primarily that of a mother dealing with the many disabilities that someone in her life may have and that of the child himself or herself. Mothers have always had it tough. From the days of Adam & Eve, mothers have always faced challenges and fears that fathers either ignore, "delegate," or simply find a solution without any thought or emotion. But mothers...they are wired differently from the moment they realize they're expecting. A new instinct kicks in. And when a disability enters the joys of parenthood, the mother becomes a new form of superhero that the world is a better place because of her.
Book Synopsis Leaning On Mom: Letters To Roberta, How a Mom of Three with Autism Found Strength During the Pandemic by : Melanie Donus
Download or read book Leaning On Mom: Letters To Roberta, How a Mom of Three with Autism Found Strength During the Pandemic written by Melanie Donus and published by Melanie Donus. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaning on Mom is a compilation of letters written by Melanie Donus, a Mom of three school-aged children with Autism, during the first four months of the coronavirus pandemic. These letters to her own mother, Roberta, share an honest look into her family and the coronavirus impacted their daily living. It's raw, funny, and takes the reader on a roller coaster of emotions, while Melanie leans on Roberta for support and interaction during a period of unplanned survival and isolation. Leaning on Mom gives a snapshot of a family living through an unexpected pandemic, but more-so, opens the door to educating the reader about how school age children with disabilities, who mostly learn through face-to-face interaction, were suddenly expected to learn virtually and accept an oncoming "new normal" for their education. Melanie also delves into her own personal health challenges. A true story of how she found the necessary inner strength and resilience during a "sink or swim" time that provided little to no emotional support, Melanie takes the reader through her struggle with alcohol during the quarantine. But don't expect all "doom and gloom." There are miracles, heroes, surprising acts of kindness that leaves the reader full of hope, motivation, and a call for change.
