When Failure Is Not An Option: A Parent's Journey Into Type 1 Diabetes

Rate this book
In When Failure Is Not an Option, a mother shares her family's odyssey into the world of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), from the numbing shock of diagnosis to the fleeting and unstable "new normal" of T1D life. This eye-opening memoir helps parents of children with T1D and other chronic diseases understand that you are not alone, and that you are stronger than you could have ever imagined.
When Failure Is Not an Option helps both parents and family/friends/teachers/coworkers prepare for what is coming, and understand how T1D challenges us but does not define us.
This mother gains strength by leveraging her twenty-five years of aerospace experience, adopting the same ethos as early aerospace pioneers like the Apollo 13 Mission Team when faced with a severe mission Failure is Not an Option. Now her mission is her children's futures–indeed their very lives.
