When I got the diagnosis that my then five-year-old daughter had "pervasive developmental disorder," I was devastated. As a psychologist I understood that this term was under the category of autism-a disability of life-long impact. As other possible diagnoses presented themselves over the years, the pressure to "fix" her became impossible. If you are a parent of a special needs child, you know that this diagnosis is the beginning of years filled with tests, medications, and new therapies ... sending your hopes on a roller coaster of ups and downs. My daughter lives in a world that is too loud, too fast-paced, and too overwhelming for her. "Can you just ... love her?" is our story. I share how God guided me and continues to hold me as we navigate our course through troubled waters. If you are struggling to understand why your child is going through this, or you are trying to cope with all the "normal" children around you, this book can help you find your way. God's presence in the midst of a topsy-turvy life-which few can comprehend-is very real, calming and hope-filled. God has trained me to expect good things no matter what they look like to my natural eyes. As I communicate His truths to Kelsi in her panic-filled thoughts in the moment, or Kelsi hears God speak to her directly, she calms down. Always. Nothing freaks God out, and nothing separates me, Kelsi or anyone else from His love.
