This book is from a personal point of view, you are therefore taken along an emotional ride with the Mother of Luke whose Son has just been diagnosed with ADHD.Early on you learn that doctors don't know everything, something I've been aware of for a long time!The book gets very interesting when it comes to vitamin deficiencies and raises valid points about whether children should first be tested for defincies in certain vitamins and minerals that can cause ADHD before being pumped with medication. Few doctors would even bother to check this before writing out that prescription...Scary!!! And that's before you read about the side effects of these drugs. This is where the book gets really gripping around the point where the child is given the medication to take.I won't spoil what the Mother does to make everything better in the end, but I'm glad that everything worked out.I would recommend this book not just to parents whose children have been diagnosed with ADHD, but to parents in general as there are other lessons to be learned from this true story as well.
