Being The Other One

Being The Other One

Being the Other One is based on the author's own experience (as a sibling of a sister with cerebral palsy) and on extensive interviews she conducted with siblings of all ages. In clear and compassionate terms, Strohm explores the often-secret feelings of siblings and offers valuable strategies for parents, healthcare providers, and siblings themselves.

The book addresses not only the issues faced by siblings in childhood but also in adulthood, when siblings must often assume responsibility for the care of their disabled brother or sister.
