From the moment of her birth, Farema was not like her sisters. She didn't respond normally to sounds or the touch of a hand. She was different. Embrace this mother's deeply personal account of tragedies and triumphs, along with joys and sorrows of raising a child with the devastating disability of autism. When lives have been turned upside down and we have nothing left to cling to, God offers amazing grace to find encouragement and authentic hope in the face of overwhelming confusion and grief. Chicken Soup for the Soul contributor Lauri Khodabandehloo takes us on a journey down the broken road that leads us to the truth of God's overwhelming faithfulness, and His promise to never leave us as she shares the special bond between those who are challenged with a developmental disability and the people who love them.

This book considers the many ways autistic lives have been dominantly storied historically, politically, socially, and culturally. Using a range of transdisciplinary theory, the author develops a theoretically rich approach termed ‘dis/orientation’, which breaks new ground for autism research’s understanding of everyday life, and everyday childhoods. The book uses stories of everyday life to provoke new analyses of what it means to talk about, live with, and become, an autistic child: these stories of schooling and education highlight what is done to autistic bodies, what is done by these bodies, and what becomes between them. This offers a way in to the theoretical work of dis/orientation; a practice and an ethic, that means remaining ever watchful for single orientations towards (and away from) autism and childhood, and the children living those childhoods. This leads to new disciplinary grounds, a reconceptualisation of the terrains of research and practice, not of the disordered and disembodied autistic mind, but of the embodied, lived, and everyday.

This is a true journey of a little girl who did not know where she belonged. She is a survivor of many types of abuse. She grew up to be a well adjusted adult only by the Grace of God. The title of this book came about by what this little girl went through. Her grandfather used to say to the children, "Who's little girl of boy are you?" She now knows where she belongs. She belongs to God. The cover was the result of a vision this little girl had when she was going through a very rough time in her life with her son. The vision is of the little girl as an infant in Jesus' arms and Jesus taking her hand as an adult. Jesus was letting her know that He had been with her throughout her life and that He will never leave her alone. Jesus will always be there in whatever she is going through or what she might go through later in her life. Jesus is her one and only savior from the trials and tribulations she will go through in her lifes journey. I pray that you will be blessed in reading this true lifes journey of this little girl who finally found out where she belonged.
