Opis

Kept In My Heart is inspired by Tracey Keating's experiences in raising a daughter with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) known as Asperger's Syndrome. The fictional characters, Ken and Tricia Kennedy, and their daughters Holly and Shelly, went through the same emotions and many of the same events as the Keating family. Ken and Tricia brought a healthy newborn baby home, without suspecting any lifelong developmental disorder. They watched Holly develop and grow, excelling in some areas and struggling with others. Their hearts ached when they were unable to identify or meet her needs. Confusion reigned when given conflicting advice from so-called experts. They were hurt and angered when even those they loved blamed their child's difficulties on poor parenting. They learned what it means to support a child who has a hidden disability. Yet through it all, there was enduring love, humor, optimism and faith.
