My Son, My Teacher: Lessons from Our Life with Autism

My Son, My Teacher is a deeply personal account of what it means to raise a child with autism. It's not a clinical guide or a perfect success story - it's the real, day-to-day experience of a mother who learns, stumbles, questions, and grows alongside her son.

Each chapter invites you into our world: the small breakthroughs, the silent struggles, the fears, the doubts, and above all, the unconditional love that transforms everything. I share moments from my son's early years, the challenges of diagnosis, and the many ways our life was reshaped - not only by autism, but by the lessons it brought us.

You'll also find reflections from my own childhood, the ways motherhood changed me, and how I learned to see the world through different eyes - his eyes. This is not a story of fixing, but of understanding. It's a story of adaptation, of letting go of expectations, and finding joy in what is.

This book is for anyone walking a similar path, searching for connection, comfort, or simply a reminder that they are not alone.
