Book excerpt: In this landmark book, Glenn Doman -- pioneer in the treatment of brain-injured children -- brings real hope to thousands of children who have been given up for lost and sentenced to a life of institutional confinement. Glenn Doman is the founder and head of the world-famous Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential, which has treated 15,000 patients in the United States and many other nations. In this valuable volume for parents and fellow professionals, Doman documents The Institutes' half-century of success with the brain-injured, citing statistics and case histories, and illustrating the basic principles of brain development with charts, diagrams, and drawings. He explains why the old theories and techniques failed, explains The Institutes' philosophy and revolutionary treatment of the brain rather than the body, recounts his staff's world-wide research, their breakthroughs and set-backs, and their tireless efforts to refine the treatment of brain injury. He reveals their life-saving techniques and their tools to measure -- and ultimately improve -- mobility, language, manual, visual, auditory, and tactile development, including unique methods of patterning, masking, and motivation, in addition to The Institutes individualised home programme in which parents, and love, are the vital ingredients. All of this is so that the brain-injured child can one day live with his peers, not in an institution.

Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive, must-have reference that provides parents with the support and information they need to help their child recover from a closed-head injury and prevent further incidents. Coping with traumatic brain injury (TBI) involves a complex process of readjustment to the changes in a once healthy child and affects everyone in the family. Traumatic brain injury occurs when the brain abruptly and violently moves within the skull as a result of extreme force to the head during an automobile, biking, or playground accident, for example. The effects of TBI can range from mild to severe and recovery can take from weeks to years. Although each child's condition is unique, all TBI patients experience impairment in one or more of the following areas: cognition; emotion/behaviour; and motor skills. While TBI can happen to anyone, children, particularly teens, are susceptible. And, children who have already had one TBI are at greatest risk. Written by a team of medical specialists, therapists, educators, and an attorney, the book covers: what is traumatic brain injury?; medical concerns; rehabilitation and treatments; coping and adjustment; effects on learning and thinking, speech and language, and behaviour; educational needs; and legal issues. Throughout the book, a case study of a boy who was injured at age eight, illustrates the effects of TBI on education, socialisation and independence. Parent statements at the end of each chapter attest to the variety of response families have, and offer insight about the experience of raising a child with TBI. A resource guide of support and advocacy organisations, a reading list, and glossary round out this authoritative guide. This book is useful to professionals who provide services to children with TBI and their families. General and special educators will find it essential reading to help their students with TBI. But most of all, the book gives parents the hope and facts they need to improve the outcome of their child's recovery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diagnosis is not destiny. Autism. ADHD. Learning difficulties. Epilepsy. Cerebral palsy. Traumatic brain injury. From the moment your child is diagnosed with a special needs condition, you are plunged into a world of doctors, specialists, and therapists. But the most important person on your child's care team is you. In Healing Your Child's Brain, child development experts Matthew and Carol Newell arm parents with the knowledge, confidence, and tools they need to help their special-needs child flourish. The Newells have treated more than 20,000 children and are the parents of two special needs children. They know firsthand, as both parents and practitioners, what works—and what doesn't. Most treatments focus on managing symptoms but don't address underlying neurological issues. This book guides readers through the stages of brain development and how they affect functioning, showing what wellness looks like at each level and how to identify—and tackle—problems. In these pages, parents will learn: • The seven key developmental areas that contribute to how well your child functions in daily life. • How to evaluate your child's capabilities and challenges. • How to create an environment tailored to your unique child, meeting them where they are, rather than where they are "supposed" to be. With insight into how your child's unique brain functions, you can move beyond managing symptoms to establishing a home regimen that fosters neurological growth. It is possible to transform the structure of your child's brain—from the cells themselves to the connections between them. By harnessing the brain's ability to grow and change slowly and steadily over time, your child can and will make progress.
