Inclusive parenting, insightful advice for friends of parents facing a different parenting journey, and a heartfelt thanks to the friends who never stop showing up.

Kristyn Newbern is joined by two close friends, Alice and Lauren, who share what it was like to support their friends through a difficult prognosis. They discuss how this experience has shaped their approach to inclusive parenting and the challenges they anticipate facing as their children continue to grow up together. They also provide some insightful advice to other friends and family members who may find themselves trying to show support from the sidelines. And finally, Kristyn shares a heartfelt letter to her friends, which I think will resonate with many parents of children with rare diseases and disabilities.
