My Name Is Cynthia

I’M More Than Special Needs

My Name is Cynthia is the life story of someone living with developmental disabilities. The story is written by her mother, Sally Birch, as her daughter would tell it if she were able to do so. It tells of Cynthias love of family, joy of life, and struggles with her desire to be normal. The subtitle, Im More than Special Needs, provides the inspiration for this book. It was a difficult book to write, but it is written in hopes that others might gain understanding of individuals and families living with similar circumstances and maybe even move some parents of children with difficulties to write a diary or book of their own.
