027 Hello listeners. This week I am talking to Ginger McGee. She’s an author and mom to two boys, one who lives daily with Tourette’s and OCD.  I’m in the middle of reading her autobiography about her life and struggles surrounding her older son. It has been such a resonating story and we had a lot to discuss in this episode.

Ginger says becoming a mom to a child that has special needs brings something out of her she didn’t know she even had.  She has poured her heart and soul into this book she has written about her experiences. It started  as a book about her son and turned into such a treasure for other moms to relate to her experiences.

Ginger is vulnerable and says there were some tough moments that she’s not sure how she made the choices she needed to and she often still feels guilt over certain moments. Her son is now 23, and she says she still struggles to help and protect him.  She wants her readers (and our listeners) to know that its okay to feel the hard feelings like anger and resentment. How you act on these feelings is the choice you have to make.
