- Synopsis
- “ Shane Neilson is a brilliant writer and his work deserves to be better known. There hasn' t been such a poignant and harrowing memoir of fatherhood in Canada since Ian Brown' s The Boy in The Moon.” – Karen Connelly, author of The Change RoomWhen his two-year-old son develops epilepsy, Shane Neilson and his wife, Janet, struggle to obtain timely care for him while at the same time navigating their young daughter' s diagnosis of childhood depression. His family' s journey through a sometimes inadequate and often uncaring medical system is informed by Shane' s personal history of bipolar disorder and his professional experience with disability as a practicing physician.
