My Life with Tiberius: a Father's Adventures with His Down Syndrome Son

Your child is a member of the mongoloid family."

"That is a type of retardation isn't it?"

"Yes."

These words were spoken to my wife and me by a doctor on the morning after birth of our first child James Tiberius on September 26,1969.

This book is a series of anecdotes about a father and his Down syndrome son. Ut traces the relationships that Tiberius establishes with the members of his family and the people he encounters at school, work and in the community.

It is a story of challenges, love accomplishments and laughter.
