Our first thoughts when writing Maze Crawler: A Family in Crisis was that our story was not unique. Usually when you start out to write a book, you try to find a twist or angle that makes your tale different than other books on the market. But that was not our purpose. We wanted to write a book that others going through the difficult experience of raising troubled children could identify with. So many parents, so many families caught in the system feel they are alone in their quest to find help for their children. Through the years we have spoken with anguished families who only want the best for their sons and daughters and, yet, could not find their way through the bureaucratic maze to get the help they needed.  Although each family is unique, their stories hang on a common thread- how do I find the help I need for my child? Although Maze Crawler is the intimate life story of one woman and her son who fought the system, it is a universal story of courage that will give those engaged in the same struggle help and the comfort of knowing they are not alone.
