Pat Stroh entered un-chartered waters when she was encouraged to write a memoir characterizing her son, the trials and tribulations of raising a child with special needs, and the people who were entrusted with his care. To date, her most prolific work has been that of an advocate for her son. After decades of living in the Catskill Mountains of New York, she and her husband pulled up roots and now reside in New Bern, NC.
