Beauty in Broken Dreams: A Hopeful Handbook for the Early Years as a Special Needs Parent

by Kathy McClelland

Part memoir, part guidebook, Beauty in Broken Dreams shares how you might find your way through the early years of a special needs diagnosis. It's hard to have hope. You may feel isolated, ill-equipped--devastated even--but you are not alone. This book is told from the perspective of having a medically complex child at birth, but it will speak to the struggles many special needs parents face--where to find community support and resources, how to deal with doctors, what type of therapy is best for your child, and how to grieve the life you were expecting while opening yourself up to new dreams. Slowly you'll begin see how God takes broken dreams and turns them into something beautiful and redemptive.
