Having a sibling with special needs is a reality many for many children, impacting the whole family. It’s a family dynamic that can both strengthen and stress even the tightest of bonds. Siblings of someone with special needs are more empathetic, more responsible and more resilient - but frequently they shoulder tremendous burdens that are not often or easily discussed. In this episode Matty interviews Miranda (age 7) and Joshua (age 3) and Megan interviews Ethan (age 11) about their experiences as siblings of Matthew (age 5) and Lilly (age 7), who live with Congenital Muscular Dystrophy.
