Amazon.com description: Product Description: SOMETHING DIFFERENT ABOUT SAM.

To her delight, Carol Prosser gave birth to a big, beautiful boy in 1988. Shortly after Sam's arrival it became apparent that something was wrong...But what?

At six months, the screaming started and didn't stop. Sam didn't coo and make babbling baby sounds. He didn't talk on time, he didn't walk on time and he didn't potty train on time. Although he looked "normal," it was obvious that there was something different about him.

Grandpa was of the opinion that Prosser's son was just spoiled and when Sam started school, some of his teachers concurred.

After countless doctor appointments, including a multitude of tests and various diagnoses, Prosser was told the devastating news--Sam was autistic.

"From the Trenches," a heart-wrenching account of one mother's heroic battle against the ignorance and misunderstanding that she and her son faced, reveals the shocking truth behind this often misdiagnosed condition. Prosser's hard-won knowledge is an inspiration to parents, educators and society to be part of the solution, rather than part of the problem.
