Editorial Review

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Prenatal testing is testing for diseases or conditions in a fetus or embryo before it is born. The aim is to detect birth defects such as neural tube defects, Down syndrome, chromosome abnormalities, genetic diseases and other conditions, such as spina bifida, cleft palate, Tay Sachs disease, sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, cystic fibrosis, and fragile x syndrome. Screening can also determine the sex of the fetus. Common testing procedures include amniocentesis, sonograms, nuchal translucency ultrasound, serum marker testing, or genetic screening. In some cases, the tests are administered to determine if the fetus will be aborted, though physicians and patients also find it useful to diagnose high-risk pregnancies early so that delivery can be scheduled in a tertiary care hospital where the baby can receive appropriate care. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Lovely light weight story
I really enjoyed this story, it was easy to read...sounded like my life and bought me hope for my future..as my kids are still young.I highly recommend to anyone with Fx kids who needs a bit of a perking up!!

5-0 out of 5 stars Very good and encouraging
As the mother of a newly diagnosed child with Fragile X, I found this book very encouraging.It doesn't hide the difficulties of life with a child with special needs, but she reminded me that there is hope.

It was a fairly easy read.I think I finished it in one day.

5-0 out of 5 stars Not Just for Special Needs Parents
First off, I'm a bit biased as Elizabeth is my sister-in-law and Zack is my nephew. But even so, I was wasn't expecting to relate much with Elizabeth except in terms of family history and common experiences. I found however that my wife and I had shared many of the same frustrations, worries and anxieties with our own three kids, albeit on a much smaller scale. My point is that I think all parents and even would-be parents would get something out of this book. They will relate to much of Elizabeth's story and at the same time will gain valuable perspective on special-needs families. I'd also say this book is a must for any child care professional. Finally, it's a great read! Elizabeth has a very rich, dynamic and engaging writing style that draws you in. I could barely put it down and finished it in two sittings. Get a copy for yourself and one for a freind! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Mary Beth Busby and Megan Massey have something in common--they are both mothers of two sons with Fragile X syndrome (the most common form of inherited mental retardation and the most common cause of autism). When Mary Beth Busby's sons, Robert and Jack, were born in 1964 and 1965, Fragile X had not even been identified as a genetic abnormality. By the time Megan Massey's sons Jack and Jacob were born in 1989 and 1991, a few researchers had identified it, but few pediatricians knew it existed. Today it is known that Fragile X affects 1 in 4000 males and 1 in 6000 females of all races and ethnic groups. Mary Beth and Megan met when they both became active in the Fragile X Research Foundation (FRAXA). They wrote "Dear Megan" to offer hope and support to the millions of parents who care for and love their disabled children. Written in the form of intimate letters between the two authors--who are separated in age by a generation--the book reveals the personal side of parents struggling with the challenges of school systems and health systems, marriage, and life to care for their disabled sons. It also shows the joy and love they find through these special children and adults. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Living with Fragile X: Two Mothers, Four Sons
Every parent of a newly diagnosed child with Fragile X should read this book. Mary Beth and Megan each have two sons with Fragile X. Their letters tell the story of two families' lives: the heartbreaking experience of searching for and finally finding a diagnosis, the simple joys of appreciating these children and their individual accomplishments, and the stories of husbands and wives adapting to their own kind of "normal." The difficulty of raising 2 children with Fragile X cannot be overstated. The coping methods shared by these two women are sometimes difficult to read, and sometimes just hilarious. But the overarching message is that you can find and new "normal", and that life gets better. When you think no one has experienced what you are going through, pick up the book and read about how alone these women once felt and what they each did to connect to other Fragile X families. Their individual accomplishments are astounding.

5-0 out of 5 stars a book a parent of affected children must read
It is simply a WONDERFUL BOOK.
Many thanks to the authors for their courage to share with the readers their inmost feelings and unique personal experience of fragile x challenges.

5-0 out of 5 stars Dear Meagan review
Dear Meagan was an interesting read regarding Fragile X.The form of the book is through letters written by two women, both of whom have two sons with Fragile X.It is very personal, and the letters give information and research-based facts regarding Fragile X; however, it is intimate as it describes family situations, concerns, and details.

5-0 out of 5 stars Revealing and inspiring look at what it means to parent a disabled child
I've just listened to Mary Beth and Megan on the Diane Rehm Show and was very moved by their openness in describing their sons with Fragile X and their life with them, how they parent these sons, searched for the best education and medical care for them, and how they have found meaning and joy in their sons, despite their severe disabilities. Their book is an inspiration to all parents with disabled children.

5-0 out of 5 stars A "must read" for all Fragile X families!
This is the book that all of the families in the Fragile X community have been waiting to read.These letters between two women tell us the story of their personal griefs and triumphs; but they tell us so much more.The chapter called Dropping Bread Crumbs explains Fragile X for the layman more clearly than you've ever heard it explained before.We will all relate to the devastating news of the diagnosis in the chapter called Diagnosis and Dealing.And we will admire the courage of Kelly Randels' chapter on the hearbreak of facing an abortion.These women have the courage to tell us what we need to know; and the talent to keep you riveted throughout their journey in a world that has been defined for them by Fragile X.A extraordinary accomplishment. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Clinicians have little information on the unique aspects of fragile X, even though it is the most common cause of mental retardation. This text looks at genetic causes, clinical manifestation and assessment and intervention of the sensory and communicative deficits seen in fragile X children. With contributions from professionals in paediatrics, genetics, therapy, occupational therapy and special education this is a multidisciplinary approach to fragile X and its treatment. Treatment goals, recommended collaborative therapy, teaching aids and case study make this an essential reference for those professionals working with these individuals. This book should be of interest to speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, teachers in special education, occupational psychologists, paediatricians and specialist nurses. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars The Fragile X Child in 1992
This 1992 piece of work was a landmark for the understanding of this tragic gene mutation.Very little was understood about it and there is still much to learn.Schopmeyer and Lowe explore many aspects of the Fragile X Syndrome including its history, genetics, symptoms, and therapy techniques.As this book was published in 1992 it does contain outdated information such as the use of facilitated communication which was found through double blind studies to not truly work.Despite the improvements that have been made, I would still recommend this book for anyone of whom this syndrome has affected their lives.It gives one a much better understanding of the life of a Fragile X Child. ...
