Our daughter has severe disabilities. This podcast should provide support, information and hope as you navigate life with your child who has disabilities. We will share our experiences raising our daughter from the early years through adulthood. On this podcast we have conversations with various guests ranging from medical professionals, to parents to surfing instructors. Together we’ll cover the good, the bad (and some of the ugly) challenges and joys we continue our journey loving and raising our wonderful daughter.
