A Different Kind of Perfect -Softcover Book

by Edited by Cindy Dowling, Neil Nicoll, Bernadette Thomas

Every parent dreams of having a happy, healthy child. What happens when these dreams are shattered by a physical or cognitive disability? A Different Kind of Perfect offers comfort, consolation, and wisdom from parents who have been there—and are finding their way through.

The writings collected here are grouped into chapters reflecting the progressive stages of many parents' emotional journeys, starting with grief, denial, and anger and moving towards acceptance, empowerment, laughter, and even joy. Each chapter opens with an introduction by Neil Nicoll, a child and family psychologist who specializes in development disorders.

"The honesty in this book took my breath away. There are so many different compelling voices to listen to. The book embraces the entire family experience, as well as the whole grieving cycle." - Susan Senator, author of Making Peace with Autism

"This riveting book brings us the voices of parents who speak with deep honesty about their grief and gratitude, anger and exaltation, despair and laughter. It offers wisdom that speaks not only to parents and families of children with special needs but to anyone who wants to learn how to live gracefully with disappointment and to transform life's challenges into blessing." -Miriam Greenspan, psychotherapist and author of Healing through the Dark Emotions.
