Welcome to Finding Beauty in the Trenches, because that's what we do, right, mommas?  For our first podcast, we talk to Jenni in Frisco, Texas, as she tells her story of raising a child with Down syndrome who has had a stroke and subsequent brain surgery.  (Please excuse the microphone issues.  I'll figure it out!)
