Review "Must read for any parent coping with their childs serious illness. Provides critical insights for maintaining continued hope and resilience. A true story about a remarkable woman. I recommend it to all my patients struggling with chronic illness." - Susan Taterka, MSW, LICSW, ACSW "A wonderful guide for one of the most difficult roads in lifes journey. Shirley Rigas courage and openness in the face of these challenges is contagious, and her hard won advice will help other parents cope with similar difficulties. The emphasis on taking care of ones self in the midst of it all is a timeless and important lesson for all caregivers." - Karen Osborn, author and parent of a chronically-ill child "Tools for the Exceptional Parent of a Chronically Ill Child" is a guide for parents of children living with serious illness not only addressing medical challenges, but also offering pathways for the protection of the "person" who is suffering. Living with an ill child is a huge burden, and often not adequately shared by partners, family or friends. I was deeply affected by this book, and you will be as well. - Richard J. Grand, MD, Boston Childrens Hospital "It is truly healing for others who know the roller-coaster of emotions and have travelled even a short parallel path. Many obstacles along the authors difficult path force her to find help and make tools to forge ahead. She stumbles and falls. Reading along, I stumble onto nuggets about acceptance and forgiveness. For the first time since my sisters illness and death, I can breathe deeply. This incredible journey, told from the heart, offers strength and comfort. Riga has taken her own great pain and transformed it into comfort for others. What a beautiful gift!" Carol Luck, author of Heroines of the Kitchen Table: Stories of Survivors "I just finished the book and I havent been able to stop crying. So many mixed emotions. Im angry, sad, heartbroken and happy all at the same time. Youre the real fighter in this story."
