When someone would tap along and rescue me from being sandwiched between these two hardbacks, sorry, did I frighten you? You never heard or seen a talking book. Well, me either. The majority of the time, I am the only one in the room, or shall I say, “on the shelf”? So many humans walk right past me, playing blind games by pretending not to see that the struggle is real.

I Sverige finns mer än en miljon anhöriga som vårdar eller stöttar en närstående med fysisk eller psykisk ohälsa eller funktionsnedsättning.

Om ovisshet och oro, otillräcklighet och frustration, skuld och skam, sorg och maktlöshet. En situation som kan utveckla oss som människor, men också utmana och slita ut oss. Det handlar om avgrunder och guppande känslohav, men också om stillsamma solgläntor och fascinerande utsiktsplatser.

From the book: "Truth is best expressed as silence. Words are our creations. They come and go, live and die. They are incapable of expressing what is real.

Sarah’s story is one for any parent; it is not just about the highs and lows of having a child with additional needs, but also simply as a mum of three. She talks candidly about coming to terms with the decision to move Oscar to a SEN (Special Educational Needs) school, another big milestone in Oscar’s young life.
