What I got from this book: advocate for your child. Trust your instincts and don't blindly follow the directions of health professionals. Every disability is a little different, so pay attention and be inventive in how you work with it. Don't be mysterious about visits to the doctor: explain what's going on and make the visit something you're doing *with* your child. One essay spoke of hospital visits turning into adventures, because afterward he'd get ice cream and a trip to a museum. Don't pity your child, or leave them dependent on you; encourage them to make choices (even if at first its as small as what to wear that day) and speak to non-relatives. Don't assume that because your child is disabled, they have no sexuality or chance at romance. ( )
