106. Nightmare On Advocacy Avenue: The Haunting Of A Disability Parent

Since it's Halloween, I thought I'd tackle one of the scariest monsters out there—the future. As a mom of a child with disabilities, the unknowns can be downright haunting. So, I wrote a little ghost story inspired by my life as a disability parent—a tale full of bone-chilling doctor's appointments, eerie government forms, and the endless maze of support services. I’ll warn you now: this episode has it all. My over dramatic reading voice? Check. Some awkward sound effects? Yep. A cringe attempt at a witch's cackle? You bet!. But hey, it’s Halloween so I thought, what the hell(fire)? So grab your pumpkin spice latte, find a cozy spot, and join me… if you dare! *** This podcast was recorded in Garageband and edited by Lisa Thornbury (with assistance from Avery).
