Publisher's Summary

Autistic Magic with Emma and Mommy

“In that moment, my heart sank. I knew something wasn’t adding up. I just didn’t know what it was yet.”

“She asked me if Emma always had bad eye contact. With that one question, my whole world came crashing down.”

The shock, the fear, the denial that we feel when we think, for the first time, that our child might have autism, is overwhelming. Then, you are left with all these daunting questions. What do I do now? What is the next step? How can I get a diagnosis? Should I go private or wait on a waiting list for months? What type of support is available for my child and our family? Should I send my child to mainstream school or an ASD unit? But most daunting of all: What kind of life will my child be able to live? What will happen to my child when we pass away?

Follow us as we navigate through:

  • The diagnosis system in Ireland.
  • The resources, payments, and specialists you can avail of.
  • Things that have helped with Emma’s behaviour.
  • The school system in Ireland and what an ASD unit is.
  • Tips we learned on our journey.
  • How we cope with our fears for the future.

After listening to this book, you will have a better understanding of what to do next. You will know what entitlements and supports may be available to your family. You will get the feeling that you are not going through your autism journey alone. Last but not least, you will have hope for the future and how far your child has come already.
