Description
Anna was an exceptional exceptional child. Born with multiple medical conditions, she had eleven major surgeries before she was fifteen. Now, sheÕs just fine. This book describes her surgeries and how they affected her emotional, cognitive and social development. It shows how we, her parents, worked with the educational system and private providers to meet her needs and describes the strategies we used to deal with her behavioral and learning differences. It includes samples of her academic work, excerpts from relevant neuropsychological assessments, descriptions of parental interventions and teaching strategies, rules of the road for raising a child with chronic health conditions, and a glossary. It was written for you Ð especially if youÕre a parent of a child with special needs, a medical professional who wants more insight into the lives of your patients, or a teacher who wants to look beyond the learning differences you see in your students. And itÕs as upbeat as Anna herself.
