When LeeAndra Chergey is told that her son, Ryan, is no longer considered "normal," she and her family are forced into a new way of handling the outside world. Together, Chergey's family and a team of carefully chosen therapists put in years of hard work, and eventually teach Ryan to speak and express emotions. Through it all, Chergey follows her heart--and in the process, she learns that being "normal" is not nearly as important as providing your child with a life full of joy, love, and acceptance. Tender and candid, Make A Wish For Me is a story of accepting and tackling a disability stigmatized and misunderstood by society.
