Synopsis
After Seth Kramer was diagnosed with cerebral palsy in 1984 at the age of ten months, his mother Laura Shapiro Kramer became dissatisfied with the incomplete diagnoses and the inadequacy of information and emotional support coming from the mainstream medical community. She began to try out alternative therapies and medicines - and they worked. This is the remarkable story of the family's journey through the world of alternative medicine, then and today.
Uncommon Voyage will educate you about these unconventional medical options, which can benefit children with many different kinds of special needs. Ms. Kramer blends practical information and advice on when - and how - to take risks and challenge treatment with an intensely personal, spiritual story of her own and her family's adjustment to having a special needs child and sibling. To guide you in your own search for answers, included is an invaluable resource guide to medical, therapeutic, and counseling organizations, as well as to experts in various alternative therapies
