Summary

Karen Draper and her husband are ecstatic to welcome Preston, their first child, into their lives. Joyful anticipation turns to fear when they are told they must prepare to lose him.

When Preston defies the odds, the Draper family enters the world of special needs. A journey where they experience indifference, medical emergencies, and uncertainty, all while trying to maintain some sense of normalcy.

As Karen discovers the educational blockades for special-needs students, she taps into her intuitive side, discovering how love and courage take mysterious forms, even in the most ordinary of lives.

From the daily grind of balancing caring for a special-needs son and a healthy daughter to mystical, angelic appearances, Karen learns about life, death, and the spaces we fill in between.

Told from a mother's perspective, The Place of Us will rearrange your heart and take you to places of hope and healing within yourself.
