Dr Golly and the Experts

The invisible disability of foetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), with Sophie


Listen Later

When Sophie discovered she was pregnant, she was filled with joy but also concern as she thought back to the nights that she had enjoyed a glass of wine before knowing she was expecting. Fourteen years later, her son was diagnosed with foetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). This week, Sophie shares the struggles her son faces, how she and her husband have supported him and her passion to break down the stigmas surrounding FASD.
