Have you ever felt like you just don’t quite fit in this community of medically complex parents, because your life isn’t “hard enough”
In today’s episode, Maddison shares with me how, despite her family’s struggles, she’s still had trouble feeling like she belonged in the medically complex community, and how she eventually came to terms with that reality. We also dive into the trickiness around overcompensating with our children who have disabilities and what it feels like when the people around us seem to be over our children’s recurrent medical issues.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re still finding your place in our community, this is one episode you can’t miss!
And a big thank you to our sponsor GeneDx for making this episode possible. Check out their website for more information on genetic testing if you’re still searching for a diagnosis in your family.
