15: Kelly Sadler: Living (and thriving) With A Limb Difference

In this week’s episode I’m joined by Kelly Sadler to talk about her 10 year old son Kobi who was born with an upper limb difference – picked up at her 20 week scan. We discuss the need for medical professionals to be trained properly to deliver unexpected news and how she felt horribly anxious for the remainder of her pregnancy after receiving the diagnosisKelly talks about how Kobi feels about his limb difference and what it holds him back from doing, but more importantly what he’s thriving at. We discuss representation in the media and how crucial that is, and Kobi’s breakthrough acting role in a huge Netflix hit show! Kelly mentions a couple of charities in this episode and you can find them below:www.reach.org.ukwww.limbbofoundation.co.uk You can find the page Kelly runs for Kobi on Instagram here:www.instagram.com/k_o_b_i___s__/?hl=en Tags: limb difference, SEND, parenting
