THE RIGHT TO<br />

A FULL LIFE<br />

In A Right to a Full Life, readers are<br />

immersed in an uplifting narrative<br />

chronicling a mother’s journey of parenting<br />

twins with different disabilities. Through<br />

her advocacy, she navigates the complexities of<br />

working with doctors, teachers, and neighbors,<br />

outlining strategies that empower her family.<br />

<strong>The</strong> book vividly portrays the mother’s quest to<br />

explore various options available to her family,<br />

seeking the right “fit” for her children. As the<br />

family collectively strives for independence, they<br />

focus on nurturing essential life skills in both her<br />

son and daughter.<br />

Central to the narrative is the significance<br />

of communities and their pivotal role in<br />

supporting individuals with disabilities.<br />

Through heartwarming anecdotes and insightful<br />

reflections, the author underscores the delicate<br />

balance between ensuring safety and promoting<br />

individual autonomy.<br />

Interwoven with practical wisdom, the book offers<br />

invaluable lessons for parents of children with and<br />

without disabilities alike. It serves as a beacon<br />

of hope, illuminating the transformative power<br />

of resilience, advocacy, and familial support in<br />

overcoming challenges and embracing the fullness<br />

of life’s possibilities.<br />
