This story reframed my own adversities in new ways and gave me strength to be different in the midst of them. You don't want to miss the uplift you'll find in this remarkable tale of hope and overcoming! DeAnna Murphy, CEO of People Acuity, Author, Keynote Speaker, Top 100 Global Coaching Leader Eva Doherty Gremmert's emotional and poignant story about her son's journey with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) was written from her heart and soul. Caring for a loved one with LGS, and recalling the countless seizures and hospital visits, is not an easy thing to do. But Eva's passion for her son is apparent through her writing. This book, Our Time To Dance, is highly recommended for any parent or caregiver who feels alone in their LGS journey. Christina SanInocencio, Executive Director LGS Foundation (Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome) A triumphant memoir! With unflinching candor and poignant acumen Gremmert potently captures and conveys the joy and sorrow of mothering a child with a disability. The achievement of the memoir is its refusal to sentimentalize the mother's very real struggles in raising her son, while simultaneously challenging normative assumptions that position disability as a burden. Our Time to Dance is not only a journey to joy but a maternal rendering of the hero's quest. A book for all mothers to read and rejoice in! Dr Andrea O'Reilly, publisher of Demeter Press and author of Matricentric Feminism: Theory, Activism, and Practice
