by Romy Wyllie



Memoir
"Loving Andrew" was a winner in the non-fiction parenting category of the Earthshine Media Group, John E Weaver New Discovery Book Awards, September 2017.

In September 2017 "Loving Andrew" was a winner in the parenting category of Earthshine Media Group's John E Weaver New Discovery Book Award. This is the eighth award for Romy Wyllie's memoir about bringing up a son with Down Syndrome. Andrew was born in 1959 when most families placed a disabled child in an institution. Instead Andrew's parent had the courage to bring him up as an integral part of their family. The story includes an account of changing attitudes towards people with handicaps along with vastly improved services.
