When Kate Swensonâs son Cooper was diagnosed with severe, nonverbal autism, her world stopped. She had always dreamed of having the perfect family life. She hadnât signed up for life as a mother raising a child with a disability.
At first, Kate experienced the grief of broken dreams. Then she felt the frustration and exhaustion of having to fight for your child in a world that is stacked against them. But through hard work, resilience and personal growth, she would come to learn that Cooper wasnât the one who needed to change. She was. And it was this transformation that led Kate to acceptanceâand ultimately joy. In Forever Boy, Kate shares her inspiring journey with honesty and compassion, offering solace and hope to others on this path and illuminating the strength and perseverance of mothers.
Look for Kate Swensonâs new book, Autism Out Loud â a moving narrative of resilience and love in which three mothers share their experiences and learnings about life alongside autism.
