About book Mother Warriors: A Nation Of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds (2008)
Since I'm not doing summer school this year, I thought I'd spend my summer doing a little professional reading. Unfortunately, the library I'm at right now has a crappy selection. I don't have high hopes for this book, however, Jenny McCarthy gets a lot of press and I'm sure many of my kids' parents have read this - so it's worth a read. She certainly is no expert, but if I had a kid with autism, I would do everything in my power to "cure" him, just as she did. Can't knock her for that. Some of the treatments are expensive,though, and most people don't have "acting"/porn star money behind them to try to help their kids. We'll see...I'm embarrassed to admit that I agree with most of what she wrote... I cried and cried, while listening to the pain that these parents and children have endured. This book was a very insightful and full of raw emotion. I don't know how I feel about the vaccine/autism connection yet, but I do know that my son has extreme reactions to vaccinations and it takes him about two weeks for all of the side effects to go away. I have been told by his OT that Sky is probably on the Autism Spectrum but I haven't had any tests done to prove it, yet. If nothing else, this book has given me information and I will now do research so I can help my son the best way possible.
