Broken Dolls is unique because in it I encompass the entire process one goes through from the moment they discover the illness of their young child through adulthood. I talk about the practical things you can do to make the task easier, the medical avenues you will take and the emotional highs and lows that are a part of suffering. At the end of most chapters, I include tips to help you. I also candidly discuss choosing your doctor, how the entire family is affected, returning to what I call the "new normal", school issues, letting go and other essentials. You will also find a heart warming section where the feelings of individual family members are expressed. The siblings surprised me with what they had to say looking back now almost two decades later. This book is not written to the medical world, nor did I write it on their behalf. This book is written from the view point of a parent caring for a child with a chronic illness from day to day. Jennifer Travis Cox
