Mom, Au. How a Child with Autism Taught Us to Be Happy

This book is not just the story of one family that gave birth to a special boy, Yasha. "Mom, Au" is a diary full of attentive observations and honest reflections, where there is room for sadness and joy, fear and courage, despair and love.
Maria Dubova writes about raising a child with an autism diagnosis. How to live when your son doesn't understand you? What is it like for parents to know that their son doesn't feel pain and has no sense of fear? How to not forget about the other family members, and most importantly – about oneself in these circumstances? The book is an attempt to find and articulate answers to all these questions, and the comments from a psychologist will be helpful to other parents. Moreover, not only to the parents of special children, but to everyone who is tired and feels on the edge, without strength and desire to move forward.
