Bøger af Dr. Eric Weiss

"What comes after 'hi'? This is the question that goes through the mind of kids with autism. Everyone experiences happiness, sorrow, anger, fear, loneliness -- including kids on the spectrum, but they often sound very different. They have issues with confidence and don't know what comes after 'hi,' which makes it very difficult for them to succeed in social situations. In the 1990s, autism wasn't widely talked about, and 'networking' didn't exist. Eric and I were literally on our own. I'd start every morning believing that today was the day Marston was going to look back into my eyes, reach for me, smile for the first time, and walk -- and he'd say 'Mama.' By the time he'd turned three, I'd uttered that prayer a thousand times. I was more determined than ever to shatter the glass that separated my son from the rest of the world. This memoir of our journey of educating Marston through programs like The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential, Vision Therapy, Marion's Blank Approach to reading, hippotherapy, ballroom dancing, and the list goes on... until we discovered stem cell replacement therapy. Love, faith, and teamwork have taught Marston how to strike up a conversation beyond the word 'hi' and how to do so much more.. We cracked the glass, but we believe STEM CELL REPLACEMENT THERAPY will ultimately shatter it. Now it's our job to share our story with the world because one win for autism if a victory for us all." -- From back cov
