'Anyone who meets Anna - she lights up their life'

Available for over a year

A Leicestershire mum has put together a book in the hope it will help other parents who have children with complex needs. Louisa Stanley from Wigston has an eight year old daughter, Anna, who has Pitt Hopkins syndrome. She started a blog about her life as a parent carer, and has now pulled together stories and poems from 26 other parents called 'Parenting on a different path'. Louisa told Ady Dayman that initially she was lonely and isolated so decided to write about her life with Anna.
