Biography
I have studied extensively and educated students in a range of settings since starting my teaching career in 1986. Yet nothing prepared me for the learning curve that was required upon the birth of our twins in 1995, one of whom was later diagnosed with Autism and an I.D.
I am also consciously aware of the different people we have become because of this life with disability. For this I feel blessed. Lauren has taught me more about life, about perspective and about myself than any other source in the world. Lauren is a wonderful story; an inspiring, enlightening story and I felt proud and compelled to write it.

Lauren Winbanks is an inspirational young person living with Autism and Intellectual Disability. This is the story of a family forced to ride the rollercoaster that is disability. Somehow, Lauren’s mother Dianne (with the support husband Jeff) had to find the resolve to remain true to one’s convictions in the face of the overwhelmingly loud, negative voices ‘lowering the bar’ on young Lauren.
