Joyce's Way is, at once, an inspirational and unpretentious story of accepting and meeting the challenges of parenthood, especially when raising a child with a disability. The book relates the life and love of Joyce Brigish, her husband Alan, and their children – Cy, Hal, and Jackie. In 1968, when Alan and Joyce’s first child, Cy (Cyril Quintin), was born with Down syndrome, the couple immediately made the decision to keep their family together—ignoring endless advice to put Cy in an institution and go on with their lives. The story unfolds through the day-to-day challenges, frustrations, and triumphs of advocating for a child who is clearly not like most others, while offering him every opportunity to reach his potential educationally, socially, and spiritually. With a desire for the inclusion of all people with disabilities, Joyce Brigish embodied the kindness and patience as well as the diligence and fortitude necessary to change public sentiment concerning people who, historically, have been marginalized. Delightful surprises await. All proceeds will be donated to Camp Jabberwocky, a one-of-a-kind sleep-away camp for people with disabilities.
