Synopsis: Susy Parker's daughter, Sarah, was diagnosed with ADHD and Anxiety when she was just six years old. Months later she was also diagnosed with Oppositional Defiance Disorder (ODD). Saving Sarah charts her family's rollercoaster journey from diagnosis, through the consulting rooms of various specialists, their confusion over the conflicting medical advice they received and Susy's eventual decision to quit the medications and find her own way to save her daughter and their family. I am sharing Sarah's story to let other parents know that there can be another way and that miracles do happen, because a miracle happened to us. ADHD, it's just a different way to be. - Susy I think that the Doctors don't know what they are doing. Children are really scared, and the Doctors don't know what the children are actually capable of. When they know, they will see that they are beautiful children, and they don't need medication. - Sarah * Names have been changed to protect identity
