Parents across America are healing autism today. When Jenny McCarthy published Louder Than Words, the story of her successful efforts to save her son, Evan, from autism, the response was tremendous. Families from across the country and around the world reached out to Jenny, wanting to share their stories with her. In “MOTHER WARRIORS: A Nation of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds” (Dutton, September 23, 2008; $24.95), Jenny shares her own journey as an autism advocate and a single mother, as well as the progress Evan continues to make with his new treatments and new biomedical interventions. Emotional and straightforward, “MOTHER WARRIORS” will inspire a generation of parents with hope and will arm them with practical information and resources to navigate the often confusing array of treatments and doctors.
No two autistic children heal in exactly the same way. In “MOTHER WARRIORS,” Jenny expands her message to share recovery stories and new strategies parents across the country have shared with her. Jenny tells how other families fought to find their own child’s “remedy of interventions” and teaches parents how to navigate safely through various autism therapies.Through meetings and interviews conducted by Jenny across the country, readers will meet a sixty-year-old woman who fought to save her son in the 1980s and helped to pave the way for parents today;
The daughter of the founder of Autism Speaks, who changed her son’s diet and drastically improved his autism, despite resistance from the organization;
A mother who successfully healed her son while also battling breast cancer herself;
A father (yes! There are Father Warriors, too!) whose son was undiagnosed after going through numerous biomedical treatments.
