SRNA hosted an Ask the Expert podcast, a special edition in collaboration with CDC, entitled "Talking With Your Child About a Difficult Diagnosis." We were joined by pediatric neuropsychologist Dr. Lana Harder. Dr. Harder discussed strategies for talking to your child about the diagnostic tests that are used at the onset of a rare neuroimmune disorder and how they may be invasive or painful. She explained transition of care as a child grows older and closer to adulthood and how to ensure your child is able to ask questions pertaining to their medical care. Dr. Harder talked about discussing concepts such as disability and adaptive activities with your child and what the future might hold for someone with one of these disorders. Finally, Dr. Harder discussed the emotions children might experience as part of this diagnosis and navigating your own emotions as a parent while talking with your child about their disorder.
