As the veil of denial is slowly lifted, author Michele Gianetti faces up to the fact that something is terribly wrong with her beautiful baby Elizabeth.She never once asks God why; rather she trusts in Him to show her the way and give her the strength to fight for little Elizabeth in every way possible.Join her in I Believe In You as she travels a road unfamiliar to most parents, into Elizabeth's world, the world of dyspraxia and sensory processing disorder, and meet the wonderful group of individuals, both therapists and friends, who help her on her journey. Her devotion to Elizabeth proves there are some things that withstand even the greatest challenge: a mother's love and the words 'I believe in you.''...Sensory processing disorder is a family affair, not 'just' a challenge that affects children. Nowhere is this message more clear and poignant than in Michele Gianetti's new book, I Believe In You. Elizabeth is the child-protagonist, a resilient champion who eventually finds priceless and effective care, but no one is more devoted or steadfast than her mother, who advocates relentlessly for her baby...then for her big girl.' Lucy Jane Miller, PhD, OTRDirector, STAR Center (Sensory Therapies and Research) and Executive Director, Sensory Processing Disorder Foundation'A true read for anyone dealing with dyspraxia and its co-morbidity. The Gianettis are a strong family that dealt with adversity head on... This inspiring book is a must-read that makes you realize how the disorder affects the whole family and how love and dedication can allow the person with dyspraxia to succeed.'
