I write this book not as Katie Price – just as a mum.
I wanted to write it because I feel strongly that Harvey deserves to have his voice heard.
It’s not just for Harvey, but for every other family out there who are in a similar situation.
I want to show you’re not limited just because you have a disability.
He is my son and I love him
Harvey is a 6ft, 26-stone 19-year-old with the mental age of around seven years old.
He has a long list of complex conditions, which you’ll learn more about in the book. But that doesn’t define him.
Harvey is also very caring and kind. He’s sweet, funny and unpredictable.
He’s a strong character who knows what he wants – and he won’t stop until he gets it.
I have no idea who he takes after...
Trauma, sadness, joy and laughter
When I first found out I was pregnant with my first child, I could never have imagined the challenges that would lie ahead.
Only those close to me know the true reality of what goes on behind closed doors.
For the first time, I will share our life – and there’s no sugar coating. There are stories and photographs you won't have seen before.
I'll tell you everything – all the highs and lows. From the magical day I first held him in my arms, to the devastating day doctors told me he was blind – and how he has proved them all wrong since. It's been some journey – there’s been trauma, sadness, joy and laughter.
As Harvey now becomes an adult, like any loving mother, I have to prepare for what the future holds for both of us...”
