Getting My First Hug - Paperback

by Steven E. Yates (Author)

This collection of stories describes the journey through the discovery, diagnosis, and treatments of a beloved son's autism. At first there was denial and a lack of information, then acceptance and tentative steps forward. Along the way, there were diets, therapies, bullies, lessons, heroes and villains. But always there was an amazing boy who overcame every obstacle in his path and the family who never quit believing in him and trying to help. Follow the inspiring story through the eyes of a father who never expected to go on such an odyssey. And share in his joy as his son triumphs and gives him the hug he always wanted.
