This is more than just a collection of poems.
It is a testament to human emotions and lived experiences. As a parent of children with special needs, these words don't simply tug at the heartstrings; they pull at the very core of your being. This book shines a necessary light on the trials and tribulations of America's mental health crisis, and the urgency of addressing it. Each page is written with sweat, tears, blood, and love. I encourage you to read with an open mind, a compassionate heart, and a genuine desire to create change within our mental health system.
"This book was born from the raw and complicated journey of parenting children with special needs. Each poem carries the weight of nights spent worrying, moments of hope, and the heartbreak that comes with navigating a system that so often falls short. These pages reflect the author's struggles and triumphs, written in sweat, tears, and love. I invite you to read not just as a witness to this family's story, but with compassion for all families touched by the mental health crisis. May these words bring greater understanding, empathy, and a desire for real change."

"I personally witnessed the blood sweat and tears that went into the prose and poetry that make up the words contained in this book. I believe it was written to release the deep and sometimes joy filled but too often heartbreaking emotions carried in the soul of the author. Perhaps you will relate, perhaps it will give verbiage to your own emotions especially if you are blessed with kids who are not just different but spectacularly unique and so very special."

"Rebecca Almeida is a passionate advocate, not only for herself and her own journey, but for every person who has walked through difficult times. Her love for her children is boundless, and her outlook on life is one of compassion-she doesn't see disability...she sees love. Rebecca has also been blessed with a remarkable gift; poetry. She often wakes during the night, inspired to write words that flow with depth and beauty. Sheer magic on the page. Her writing carries emotion, hope, and strength, touching all hearts that read it. Rebecca is truly an extraordinary soul, and all who cross her path will be enveloped by her light."
-Cari Cuesta, LMHC
