Resource Description
Discovering that your child has a permanent pervasive developmental disorder is a shock to any parent. At first, it is hard to believe that the diagnosis is true. But quickly, you begin to immerse yourself in information to learn as much as you can, as quickly as you can. When the author s son was diagnosed with ASD at the age of 4, she began collecting files of paperwork from doctors and therapists, test results, IEPs, and her own journal writings. She combined this information in chronological order and used it as a resource to explain her son to teachers, grandparents, caregivers, therapists, and other parents. This book prepares the teacher, therapist, doctor and family member for that proverbial emotional rollercoaster associated with living with ASD.
