Synopsis
This collection of poems about motherhood, marriage and being a woman offers insight and hope for all in the special needs community. "A must-read for any mother of a special needs child."- Elaine Hall, Internationally recognized autism educator and advocate, Founder of The Miracle Project.
"Jennie Linthorst's book is an inspiring testament to the challenging emotional journey of raising a child with special needs. Her heartfelt personal poetry depicting daily life gives the reader a real look into the sense of fear, loss, determination, love and ultimately acceptance that every special needs mom goes through." --Hartley Steiner, author of This is Gabriel Making Sense of School and Sensational Journeys
"In using the simple phrase that "life has thrown me overboard" to describe the complexity of her son's challenges, Jennie's honest words convey a range of emotions that parents of special needs children will relate to very easily." --Phillip Hain, Executive Director, Autism Speaks, Los Angeles Chapter
