What would you go through as a parent to give your child the power
of speech?
Parents dream their children will achieve many great things, but
most parents do not dream their children will struggle for years
just to speak what is in their hearts and minds. Kathy Hennessy
faced this challenge with not one but both of her children when
they were diagnosed with childhood apraxia of speech.
What does a child feel like when no one in the world understands
what she is trying to say?
Imagine the frustration when even your mom doesn't get it. Young
Kate Hennessy understands all too well those feelings of
exasperation and defeat.
In this forthright and emotional story, Kathy tells of the
mountains they climbed just for her children to have a chance at
speech. Hennessy tells of the battles she waged with insurance
companies, pediatricians, school systems, and family, while Kate
shares her own experiences and those of her brother with bullies,
friends, and following their dreams.
