I'm not going to lie- I never, ever thought that my husband and I would EVER end up in therapy together. But then again I also never, ever thought that we would be the parents of two children living with an ultra rare genetic disease too. Life throws you curve balls. Shit happens. Marriage isn't always easy. This episode I get candid about some of the issues Donald and I faced as a couple going through some very trying times with our kid's health and how we ultimately learned just how important it is to continue to invest time in our relationship.

Stay tuned for next week's episode where I (force) Donald to sit down with me and answer all your questions about being the world's raddest Dadvocate!
