This book is born from a crucible of real experiences
during a mother’s journey through the autism maze. I share with you
the missteps of my early motherhood, the overlooked signals,
the unheeded pleas for help that my child sent out in his own unique way.
These behavioral deficits, left uncorrected, were like dark spots spreading
across a white cloth, staining it in ways I had feared could never be undone.
But then came the epiphany: every behavior is a form of communication.
And who is better to decode these messages than a mother’s heart?
