I invite you to check out the book I wrote abour our son, Jeff who lived with Down syndrome for 27 years. "Journey With Jeff; Inspiration for Caregivers of People with Special Needs," tells of our joys and challenges as a family. I retired from teaching and tutoring children with special needs, then wrote this so no caregiver needs to feel alone. (Available on Amazon.com) I would be honored if you added this book to your Bookshelf.
