Author and autism advocate Carrie Cariello joins Morgan to share the deeply personal story behind her book Marriage: I Love You (for Now). What happened after their son was diagnosed with autism, how the diagnosis affected every member of their family, and why protecting their marriage became just as important as advocating for their child.

Carrie opens up about grief, parenting differences, marriage counseling, raising a child with special needs into adulthood, and the lessons she and her husband have learned after 27 years together. This is the kind of advice parents or anyone wanting to have kids needs to hear!
