Abstract

This book review considers the challenges of raising a child with a developmental disability as seen in the book What time is the 9:20 bus? by Lucinda Hage. Beyond being an emotional and compelling narrative of a mother struggling to navigate Canada’s medical and social support systems, the book is also an excellent introduction to the fields of bioethics, disability ethics, and resource allocation ethics.
