Description

In this week’s episode I’m joined by Lucy Dossor to talk about her son Daniel who’s 20 and has Down syndrome. We discuss how she coped with Dan having to have heart surgery as a baby and the aftermath of that, Daniel’s dynamic with his siblings growing up and what his friendships have looked like. We also talk about the transition from child to young adult and the challenges that brings, including the lack of information for navigating post school life, and Lucy’s plans for where Dan will live.
