My Dad Naps Too!: A Book About Narcolepsy and Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (Talking to Kids about Narcolepsy)

The Talking to Kids about Narcolepsy series to help adults in a childâ€™s life talk to them about what the narcoleptic in their life goes through every day. Narcolepsy is hard enough to describe to other adults; trying to describe it to children sometimes feels impossible. â€œMommyâ€™s brain is brokenâ€ or â€œDaddy wants to play with you but he is too tiredâ€ just doesnâ€™t cut it after a while. Excessive Daytime Sleepiness robs people of time they should be spending with their families and friends. It is heartbreaking looking into a childâ€™s eyes and telling them you are too tired to play with them. The sadness that comes over their little face is gut-wrenching. Itâ€™s so hard to be tired all the time. How can a narcoleptic person put it into words that Narcolepsy not only hurts the child but hurts them too? This books is written in the voice of a child. The child in the story is telling her friend about her motherâ€™s Narcolepsy. It uses simple language and examples of how Narcolepsy and Excessive Daytime Sleepiness can effect a family in everyday life. There are other aspects of Excessive Daytime Sleepiness that are not covered in this book. The author chose to focus on the issues that more directly effect the family and their emotional consequences. There are follow up questions at the end of the story to help families talk about the material in the book and begin a meaningful discussion. Narcolepsy is not like in the movies. Itâ€™s not randomly falling over and snoring comically. Itâ€™s not a luxury to take naps during the day when the body requires it to function.
