A Mother’s Heart
Memoir of a Special Needs Parent
By Eichin Chang-Lim
Genre/Category: memoir
It can be lonely parenting a special-needs child... But you are not alone. Blindsided by a congenital condition. Battling to give her son everything he deserved. Could this mom conquer the storms and emerge stronger? California. Eichin Chang-Lim’s baby looked perfect in every way. Although her newborn’s eyes were oddly sky blue while those of his Asian parents were brown, both her husband and pediatrician assured her she was imagining trouble. But when her pleas finally earned her an audiologist referral, her heart broke when she learned her son was profoundly deaf… and would never call her Mommy. Tormented with worry that her soon-to-be-born baby girl would suffer from the same issues, Eichin poured herself into research. But the pain and jealousy of seeing other talkative little boys made it difficult to break free of the dark cocoon of misery that threatened to overwhelm her life. Would her fierce loyalty be enough to shield her baby from an unforgiving world? Pairing conversational advice with heart-wrenching and heartwarming memories of caring for a son with special needs, multi-award-winning author Eichin Chang-Lim offers compassionate support for anyone in a similar situation. And as she reflects on the struggles and triumphs her family encountered along the way, you’ll feel empowered and uplifted in your own parenting journey. A Mother’s Heart is a raw and honest memoir.
