Raising the Extraordinary

Raising the extraordinary – a podcast for parents and carers raising children with additional needs.

Are you a parent or carer of a child who has a form or

additional needs? Whether that be mild autism or a rare genetic disease? If so

my podcast could be for you. After my son Isaac was diagnosed with CLN2 Batten

Disease, I entered a new world that I didn’t know much about. I felt like I had

been thrown into a deep dark hole with no ladder to climb out.

2 Years on and I have navigated my way through many challenges.

I do not claim to be an expert but I do want to use what I have learnt to help

you. I want to bring the community of families with children with all types of

needs and/or diseases together. Lets support, guide & nurture one another.

Join me each week as I discuss different topics, chat with

guests and learn alongside you as we navigate this journey together. No one

needs to feel alone in this community, whether you’re a parent, carer, auntie,

uncle, grandparent, foster parent etc come and join me.

 In this first episode you will learn a little about me, what it

is like to be a mother of a child with Batten Disease. You'll hear about some

of the battles I have faced and moving forward, what I hope to achieve with

this podcast.
