Walking on Eggshells: Confessions from an Asperger Marriage and How We Made It Work, Paperback

This is an Asperger romance. A true account of how young and obsessional love turned into a nightmare marriage of confusion, anger and recrimination. The discovery of how one partner was on the autistic spectrum and their coming to terms with and coping with this enduring situation. Karen describes in her own words, with complete honesty how she survived twenty years of walking on eggshells and feeling so very alone, before turning their marriage around and rediscovering the love they first had for each other.
