Delighted to see that Natasha: A True Story of Disability, Caring and Politics by Seamus Cowman made The Irish Times bestseller list at the weekend. Well done to Seamus. Natasha is a deeply moving and politically charged memoir, which documents the Cowman family's nineteen-year journey of raising and advocating for their late daughter, Natasha, who lived with profound physical and intellectual disabilities. It also provides a powerful critique of the Irish healthcare system, and the approach of the Irish political system to carers and those with disabilities.
