When the Silence Softened

by Eunice Achieng Fwaya · Non Fiction · ISBN 9798265168832

Raising her autistic son, Kim, in Kenya, a mother navigates school rejection, inaccessible care, financial strain and the daily demands of caregiving. Her search for support takes her to India and tests her faith, relationships and sense of self, while her daughter carries burdens of her own. With candour and humour, this memoir traces the family’s struggles, the community that sustains them and the drive to build NeuroConnect Therapy Centre in Kisumu. It calls for dignity, belonging and practical support for neurodiverse children and their families.
