Carol Engler's award-winning memoir Aaron's Story: One Wrong Turn is gaining renewed attention following its 2025 International Impact Book Award. The book shares the family's real-life journey raising a son with autism, Tourette syndrome, and bipolar disorder. Through honest storytelling, it explores caregiving, mental health, family resilience, and the challenges of navigating support systems, offering hope and understanding to families, caregivers, educators, and advocates.
The memoir chronicles one family's experience raising a son with autism, Tourette syndrome and bipolar disorder, offering an unfiltered account of long-term caregiving .
Aaron's Story: One Wrong Turn, a memoir by author Carol Engler, is receiving renewed public attention following its recognition with an International Impact Book Award in 2025. First published in December 2021, the book continues to resonate with families navigating comparable caregiving journeys.
The memoir chronicles Engler's experience raising her son, Aaron, while managing autism, Tourette syndrome, bipolar disorder and related mental-health needs. It explores how sustained caregiving shaped family relationships, sibling dynamics and daily decision-making, and reflects on the family's evolving interactions with mental-health and support systems over the years.
"Knowledge is power, and these stories need to be heard," said Engler.
Written as a first-person family memoir rather than a clinical guide, "Aaron's Story" offers an honest account of the practical and emotional demands of long-term caregiving. The narrative addresses diagnosis, treatment, family conflict and public judgment, as well as the sustained effort required to secure appropriate support - set alongside moments of humor, connection and resilience.
The account reflects Engler's personal and family experience and is not intended as medical or clinical guidance, nor does it claim to represent the experience of every caregiver or household.
