Stolen Child: A Mother's Journey to Rescue Her Son from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

A year in the desperate life of a boy transformed by OCD from a bright ten-year-old into a stranger in his own skin.



Although Laurie Gough was an intrepid traveller who had explored wild, far-off reaches of the globe, the journey she and her family took in their own home in their small Quebec village proved to be far more frightening, strange and foreign than any land she had ever visited.



It began with her ten-year-old son’s mild obsessions following the death of his grandfather, but ballooned into severe obsessive compulsive disorder. No longer able to function normally, Gough’s son fell into trances where his parents couldn’t reach him and started performing ever-changing rituals he believed would bring his grandpa back.

Stolen Child examines a horrifying year in one family’s life, the lengths parents will go to for their son, and how they won the battle against his all-consuming disorder.
