Book excerpt: Don't fall for the filtered pictures and perfect social media posts... Parents raising children with invisible special needs are hanging on by the tiniest thread. We NEED the support of our extended family and friends to get through our days filled with violent tantrums, challenging behaviors, and constant battles. The good news Grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, neighbors and friends desperately want to help us. The bad news their "help" comes off as insensitive or judgemental, making matters worse, not better. Julie Falcone is a mother in the trenches, raising four children diagnosed with autism, ADHD, anxiety, sensory processing disorder, depression, developmental delay and oppositional defiant disorder, who gives a brutally honest, behind the scenes look at what raising children with invisible special needs looks like on a daily basis.

DEAR LOVED ONES, with grit and humor, will give family and friends a variety of ways to truly support the special needs family they love, creating positive relationships that will last a lifetime.
