Moving Forward: Reflections on Autism, Neurodiversity, Brain Surgery, and Faith - Paperback

by Jacki Edry (Author)

When I awoke from brain surgery, I discovered I had scrambled senses and a neurodivergent mind. I embarked on a fascinating journey to recovery, filled with valuable insights into autism and neurodiversity.

Moving Forward takes you on this journey, exploring the worlds of autism, neurodiversity, brain surgery recovery, and faith. It provides a rare glimpse into how sensory and neurological processing affect functioning and thought through the eyes of a professional, parent, and woman who has experienced neurological challenges firsthand.

This book presents an informative, emotional, and empowering account of the challenges and struggles on the road to recovery- as well as the search for understanding, meaning, and faith. It enables you to step into the shoes of someone who has endured the types of sensory irregularities commonly experienced by people diagnosed with varying forms of neurodiversity - including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, Irlen Syndrome, Auditory Processing Disorder, and more, and to gain understanding as to how to cope with these challenges and to compensate for them.

Moving Forward will enlighten parents, professionals, and family members to understand and assist the neurodivergent people they work with and love.
