A Year Later — Raising a Special Needs Child Without the Support Promised
from Voice Notes to My Sister Hosted by Temora Helena
In this raw and emotional voice note, Temora opens up about the reality of raising her son Cannon, who was diagnosed with autism last year — and what it’s like to navigate broken systems while holding everything together as a mother. From promises of support that never arrived to months of waiting for services that were supposed to help, she shares the truth behind what it means to advocate, to fight, and to keep believing even when you’re exhausted. This episode isn’t about complaining — it’s about clarity. It’s about standing up for your child, your peace, and your faith in the process. Because even when the system didn’t show up — she still did. 💌 VoiceNotes to My Sister — a series by Temora Helena, created to remind women everywhere that their softness and strength can coexist.
