Mixed blessings | William Christopher, Barbara Christopher
Pickpick

A candid and warm memoir of Bill and Barbara Christopher's experience raising their son, Ned, who has autism. Bill and Barbara tell their story in alternating chapters, with letters from Barbara and their other son, John, interspersed throughout. Worth reading to appreciate how far autism awareness has come.

#bookmail from Abebooks! My first copy went astray somewhere in the postal system, so they sent me another copy for free. 🙌

KCorter Win! Abebooks is my favorite. ❤ 7y
rabbitprincess @KCorter Yes, I was very glad they had an extra copy for me. Bill Christopher was my favourite actor on M*A*S*H and I've wanted to read this book for decades. Thank heavens for the Internet! 7y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk Didn't know this existed. My wife is a hardcore M*A*S*H fan, so this knowledge may come in handy. 7y
rabbitprincess @TobeyTheScavengerMonk Other books she might like, if she doesn't have them already, are The Complete Book of M*A*S*H, by Suzy Kalter, and TV's M*A*S*H: The Ultimate Guidebook, by Ed Solomonson. The Kalter book has some great photos 😄 (edited) 7y
