3 Children, 3 Disabilities, 1 Family

Parenting is one of the most difficult, heavily underappreciated and extremely complex 'jobs' in the world. Additional difficulties which make this 'job' harder arise if you are a single parent, if you have a disability or one or more of your children have a disability. Imagine you have no support network, such as family, friends or a network group. Church group or other parents at school to reach out to. What follows is a heart breaking, honest account of one family's painful struggle to hold their family together, in a home filled with chaos, exhaustion, both physical and emotional. Above all, the challenge to do the best that you can in the situation you find yourselves in.This remarkable book shows how one family struggles and challenges the complex world we live in where a child could be perceived as different or difficult. This book focusses on the most difficult years that the family have been through, how they parent and how society views their disabled children. The consent fear during multiple hospital operations and the feeling of utter helplessness watching and waiting for a child to wake up in intensive care. Join the Russell Family on a journey to see that despite everything that happens, hope is always there. For anyone that is dealing with any disabilities of they own, or impacted by anyone with disabilities. In fact, anyone who wishes to understand how living with an 'invisible' condition can be extremely difficult for all concerned you will want to read this as people with any 'additional or complex' needs are no different to anyone else, they just need some extra help. Disabilities do not discriminate against gender, generation, race or any other group that we have created.
