What people are saying about TheRett Syndrome Handbook : “I receieved the book yesterday. Wow, it is so awesome. I can’t keep my nose out of it! Thank you so very much. It contains such a wealth of knowledge.” ~ Gillian Deane, New Zealand Rett Syndrome Association “I received my Handbook yesterday and can not wait to really get my hands on it. I glanced through and it is full of wonderful information, ideas, stories, etc. Thank you, Kathy, for a job wonderfully done and I can say this without having read past the dedication, the table of contents and the foreward by Dr. Zoghbi. Obviously a lot of time and compassion went into this handbook.” ~ Rose (Renee, 25) “I am excited that some of the stuff on the CD you can print is very practical like the home/school communication sheet. I have been working on my own but I like this one much better!” ~ Shirley Jeffers “For those who just cannot afford the cost, ask your local school or therapist or other organizations if they will put copies of it in the ESE parent libraries. Another thought to keep in mind. Just how much would you spend on seeing a medical specialist who just might have answers on some of the various manifestations of Rett? Most of us would go to the ends of the earth for our Angels. The answers, and the information you will find in this Handbook will quite possibly help you more than any trip to a doctor. Think about it. It is a valuable investment that will see you through many years to come.” ~ Priscilla Sherman (Darleen, 46) “While I was in the hospital my Rett Syndrome handbook arrived. I felt so happy and amazed as I sat beside Jean's bed and read it. I felt such an overwelming relief as I read about buttons, seizures, speaking to doctors - the one I was dealing with was not meeting my needs for respectful communication and so I confidently told her what I would like in our interractions and they improved dramatically. The book seems more like a good friend, the perfect doctor who has all the answers, a comforting parent and a ticket to joining the Rett Syndrome family with confidence. I did not expect such a huge resource when I ordered it and my love and gratitude goes out to you Kathy for such a wonderful gift, so perfectly timed for me and Jean. “ ~ Penelope |
