Told with the intensity of a medical thriller, the extraordinary story of how Clay Whiffen and his family conquered autism. "Leeann Whiffen's fight for her son is a poignant, intimate story of perseverance and love - a reminder to all of us that a mother is the greatest ally a child with autism will ever have. A Child's Journey out of Autism shines a heartfelt light on a future of healing and hope." Jenny McCarthy, author of Mother Warriors and Louder than Words The therapy costs $30,000. We'd be mortgaging our lives and our savings on something we're not even sure could help our son. But the clock is ticking: the longer we wait, the harder it will be to pull him out of this shell. How are we going to afford it? How can we not afford it? When Clay Whiffen was diagnosed on the autism spectrum, his parents didn't know where to turn. They refused to believe that he could not be cured, and began to try every therapy they could afford - and many they couldn't. In this extraordinary story of one family's struggle with autism, Leeann Whiffen gives voice to the fear of losing a child and the fight to reclaim him, exploring what treatments eased her son Clay's symptoms, where the Whiffens found support, and how the family conquered one of the toughest challenges a child can face. With a foreword by autism specialist Dr. Bryan Jepson, A Child's Journey out of Autism spells out what treatments worked, where the family found help, and how they made it through this crushing crisis. In a time of despair and confusion - when another child is diagnosed with autism every 20 minutes - this is a profound, proven message of hope for anyone whose life is touched by the disorder.

The United States' culture teaches us, from the time we are very young, that we can find love outside of ourselves—true, unconditional love—and feel fulfilled within ourselves; you can hear it in songs, watch this theory in movies, and even experience it by watching couples. The truth is that this type of external love is not sustainable or fulfilling for anyone—especially sensitive individuals or Indigo Children. By being present with one's self and who we truly are, we can learn to love ourselves internally first—and realize that we do not need anyone to do this for us. It can be a challenging message to understand in this externalized culture. I walk you through this process, and my own personal journey, with my personal story and paintings. In the conclusion of this book, I also offer guidance, hope, and encouragement for any who have walked a challenging path or a path in hunger for more growth.
