CYMBALS IN THE SANCTUARY

About the Book

Each of the author's seven children is special. But one of them is differently special. John, 53 years old at this writing, was born acutely mentally retarded. In all of his years, John has not spoken a word. CYMBALS IN A SANCTUARY: The Story of An Other Kind of Love, is a story about this John, a gentle man who, in his own way, is teaching lessons for a lifetime. The book follows John's life from pre-birth up to the present, allowing a digression or two along the way. The reader gets to know John personally and to better understand the trials of a family faced with the uncertainties in the life of a special child. This is a stirring, true account. It is inspirational, educational, and recommended reading for all parents, expecially those with developmentally disabled children.
