Autism is Not a
Life Sentence is about a mother-daughter team who worked together
to build a life of fulfillment and success - not by beating autism, but
by working with it. It is the story of how author Lynley Summer's daughter,
Jessica, descended into darkness from what appeared to be a normal infancy.
The book chronicles how the author incorporated her background of chaos
theory into behavioral modification therapy and used it successfully to
systematically eliminate some of the characteristically autistic behaviors
from Jessica's life. The reader will see Jessica, initially diagnosed
as limited to a self-contained classroom and a helmet, grow into an accomplished
high school student who composes music, writes stories and speaks at conferences
about life with autism. |
