Abstract:
Raising a severely disabled child can actually have its lighter side. Disabled Fables is a collection of fifty-five warm and humorous personal stories about the ups and downs of raising our disabled son Oscar, whom we affectionately refer to as “The O.”

This is a happy book about three decades of unique experiences that could only have occurred from raising such a child. It is a positive message that might be summed up best by a quote from humorist James Thurber: “Humor is emotional chaos remembered in tranquility.”
