F.a.s. - a Cry for Help Sandra Lemmon-orton

FAS - A Cry for Help is a biographical account of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Fetal Alcohol Effects. There is much research being done in behalf of FAS/FAE, but not much has been written about the personal day to day encounters and experiences with the behavioral problems. This book documents some of the trials and tribulations in living and dealing with this disability that is 100% preventable! Not knowing what my two granddaughters were plagued with when my husband and I adopted them, led me to do research and study about a subject that I didn't even know existed. Thank goodness I had kept journals and documentation of all facets of their lives so I could write this book and share with other people. If I could help make life easier for just one other family who was going through what I had experienced, then it would all be well worth it. Please read this book with an open mind and glean from it what would make your life easier and more pleasant to live with - and then go forward.
