"The emotional journey of a young family faced with recurring strabismus in their first born child." After 4 long years, endless tears, public harassment, social discomfort, and a seemingly endless emotional roller-coaster, we have finally documented and published our story in an 85 page, full color photo e-book format for everyone to download and enjoy immediately. In our book we reveal our complete journey including our triumphs, our failures, and the things we endured to eventually reach the peaceful, confident, assured state that we now embrace as our reality. 4 years ago, we began a new journey. We welcomed our first born child into the world and as expected, our lives changed forever. But guess what? Our journey quickly changed path from complete joy to a mix of emotions, concern, and worry. Our child was diagnosed with infantile (congenital) strabismus. If you are the parent of a child with strabismus, then you already know some of the issues and concerns that accompany this condition. What you may not know is where to find the answers to your questions and concerns. You may also be looking for a more comprehensive guide to the emotional aspect of living with strabismus in your family. If this describes you, then this book is for you. You see, we suspected something was wrong in the first few months, yet it took visits to 3 separate doctors before anyone would agree with us. They initially attributed our concerns to being first time parents and quickly dismissed the issue as pseudo (false) strabismus. The good news is that today our son’s eyes are within an acceptable degree of alignment; unfortunately this only came after 4 surgeries, months of worry, loss of insurance coverage (at one point), and many emotional and sociological heartaches......
