Bigger Than the Moon: A Parent's Journey with Autism

From loss and trauma to acceptance and achievement, Chloe's birth was both an ending and a beginning.

Honest, hopeful, and deeply moving, Bigger Than the Moon offers inspiration for those facing similarly unexpected challenges, showing that even the toughest journeys can lead to profound change.
