Patty Kikos interviews Romy Holman, who shares her story about her daughter Milla being deprived of oxygen for ten minutes during her birth, and then being diagnosed with epilepsy and cerebral palsy. Romy emigrated from South Africa with her husband, had two more children, and founded the One & All Hub, which is a holistic centre for mixed abilities, who are pioneering innovations in disability and mental health.
