Book excerpt: Some wise person once said, "If you know one child with autism, you know one child with autism." In Embracing Mrs. Mommy, Living with, Learning from and Loving Someone with Autism, Rocky Bowers Parra provides snapshots of daily life with Matthew, her youngest child. Diagnosed on the autism spectrum at three years old, Matthew positively impacts Rocky and her family in ways they never imagined. Rocky and her family began advocating for autism acceptance and awareness soon after his diagnosis. Five years ago she began to write about their experiences as a way to promote awareness. It grew into something more. By sharing their experience, Rocky hopes to help other families and individuals impacted by autism find the good in their situations, celebrate their successes (big or small) and most importantly, feel the love of someone who has walked before them. Special needs parenting and family life can sometimes feel lonely and isolated, this book will let families know they are not alone. The road is bumpy and not without the occasional detour, but there is a way forward, you just have to follow the path and embrace it.
