Casey Parks shares how it all began with Ford back almost 6 and a half years ago. There were difficulties from day with one Ford, but the doctors seems uninterested. He and his amazing wife Effie Parks, who is a huge rare disease campaigner (https://effieparks.com/) knew that something was not right with Ford from day 1. Casey talks about how he as dad, husband has dealt with the world he now lives in. He is real and honest and he shares a very real fear, not just himself but also Effie too. We talk about acceptance and getting help as a dad, because we owe it to ourselves to be the dad we want to be to our kids. Why? Because they need much more help than typical kids … as we know so well. . We discuss the guilt which we feel as dads if we go out to fill our cup. Casey gives me and you advice how to let go of that guilt, because it equally doesn’t help our partners when we roll back home not refreshed! Casey is so bloody awesome and I love how real and open he is about where he was and where he is now and how he got there. He doesn’t know any lullabies, but sure as eggs he can sing two magical songs to Ford every night. Fly me to the moon-Frank Sinatra, Nature boy- Nat King cole. Grab a pen and paper as there is so much here to take down.
