“A Miracle from God in the Hands of a Mother” is based on a true story and is a heartfelt tribute by the author to her beautiful family and, in particular, to her mother. A mother who dedicated her life to the recovery of her young son after being diagnosed with cerebral palsy, changing the course of their lives forever. Clinging to an unwavering faith and with a great deal of tenacity and perseverance, she managed to transform her son into an extraordinary man, without ever neglecting the rest of her family.
This story, told in a personal and amusing tone, shows how the rehabilitation process was adapted to their everyday life, highlighting the importance of acceptance, affection, and the active participation of the immediate family in the development of a child with disabilities. Throughout each chapter, the author regales us with an example of love, but above all, a light of hope, in an interesting and moving story that we’re sure will satisfy even the most demanding reader.
