Creating this LiveBook Library, we hope that
medical professionals (doctors, nurses,
physiotherapists, midwives, doulas, social
workers, care givers, etc.) will:
• understand better what parents of newborns
with special needs feel (their fears, suffering
and hopes);
• become more reflective towards their own
behaviour, feelings and biases regarding the
parents who are expecting or have newborns
with special needs;
• share their unique experiences, achievements
and failures in supporting and interacting with
such parents;
• be motivated to communicate and interact
more effectively and carefully with parents who
are expecting or have newborns with
disabilities.
