Book Review

Reading this book just a week after World Autism Awareness Day(April 2) made it feel even more special. “Whatever It Takes” by Sangeetha Chakrapani is not just a memoir, but a very personal story of a mother who chose courage over fear. What starts with a high-risk pregnancy and the birth of quadruplets—two on the autism spectrum and one needing many surgeries—slowly becomes a story of love, strength, and never giving up. Through every challenge, Sangeetha and her husband decide to do exactly what the title says—whatever it takes—for their children.

The book shares the real ups and downs of parenting. There are emotional moments, life lessons, and also small bits of humour that make you smile. The writing is simple and honest, which makes it easy to connect with her journey. She talks about the hard times openly, but also shows how patience and love can slowly bring balance and hope into life.

What makes this book stand out is how her personal struggles turn into something bigger. Sangeetha not only cares for her children but also dreams of creating a better support system for others living with autism. This book is warm, emotional, and inspiring. It reminds us how strong a parent’s love can be and how much can be done when you don’t give up.
