Overview

What is it like to have a sibling with a disability?

By Siblings, For Siblings is a collection of quotes, advice, and stories gathered from siblings of those with disabilities to support other siblings of those with disabilities. The book is divided into common emotions — feeling different, isolated, embarrassed, sorrow, and grateful.

Written by siblings of people with disabilities and reviewed by medical professionals, the stories are meant to show other siblings of people with disabilities that they aren't alone, and that many other people can relate to their experiences and emotions.
