Synopsis

Blessed in Weakness is the tender account of how a mother found spiritual joy and divine purpose amidst the heartache and hardship of raising a severely disabled child. When Eugenie's son was diagnosed with low-functioning, non-verbal autism she wanted to understand God's purpose for his disability. From a near-death experience to the ordinary activities of day-to-day living, she shares how she has learned: Disability is a part of God's plan, and this is a plan of happiness; Each disabled person has a unique mortal mission; Those with disabled minds remain pure and have a special connection with heaven; Mothers don't need to be perfect, just good enough; By reaching out, you manifest the works of God. "Outstanding and perceptive!" "Unique and important" "Uplifting and edifying" "This inspiring story epitomizes the paradoxes of raising a severely disabled child: unanswered questions and remarkable insights, painful rejections and startling acts of service, agonizing losses and compensatory blessings, unfulfilled dreams and unexpected miracles. Parents, neighbors, teachers, and strangers will be affirmed in hope, compassion, and the meaning of life and love."
