Looking Back and Laughing is a refreshing and honest look at life through the eyes of a parent with a child on the autism spectrum. Full of hysterical, heartbreaking, and almost unbelievable stories of everyday life, Stephanie wrote this book to grieve the loss of the childhood and life that she had expected for herself and her son. Full of learning moments, as well as lessons to take away, this book was written as a way for her to heal. It is hard to see how far you have come when you haven't yet processed the craziness that you find yourself in at that moment. You can feel the love that she has for her child in every word you read. Every child with ASD (autism spectrum disorder) is different, but they also have a lot in common. Join Stephanie and her son, Javier, on their emotional, yet surprisingly inspiring and real-life journey while they look back and laugh at how far they have already come.
