#12 Mum of 3, Hannah Jenkins on one of her twin daughters diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy

Our guest today is (another) friend of Demi’s, Hannah Jenkins who Demi knows through the Geelong Cats.

Hannah talks to us about her high risk pregnancy with her twin girls and how her waters ruptured at 23 weeks resulting in weeks of bed rest in a Melbourne hospital, while her toddler and husband were up and down the highway to and from Geelong almost everyday. Her twin girlies Piper and Willa were born at 30 weeks and spent a period of time in NICU before being able to move back to the Epworth Geelong Maternity Ward for another period of time.

Speaking in depth publicly for the first time, Hannah goes into detail on how she noticed differences with the twins' progression and followed her gut to ultimately discover one twin has Cerebral palsy. 

Hannah explains the challenges they face on a daily basis and how their life has changed. She gave us an insight into her hardest days and darkest thoughts and we know our listeners will appreciate the honesty. 

Beautiful Piper is so lucky to be born into such a loving family that would go to every length imaginable for her.

We cant thank Hannah enough for the vulnerable chat!
