What happens when a phone conversation turns into an emotional storm? Join us as we navigate the unpredictable waters of raising a child with severe autism, sharing stories of heartache and hope, laughter and lessons. You'll hear about the time our son overheard a phone call that led to an explosive meltdown, revealing the depths of his feelings of exclusion. We also unravel the curious case where a sudden scare surprisingly soothes him, and explore the evolving role of cannabis in managing his behavior. Educator Claire joins us in spirit, as we express our gratitude for her dedication to understanding and supporting children with severe autism, underscoring the vital role of education in shaping compassionate communities.

Our family's journey takes a turn as we recount the transition to rural life, where joys of open spaces met the challenges of unmet needs in local schools. Delight in the memories of outdoor adventures and a cherished pet, while also feeling the sting of loss and adaptation. Whether it's the bittersweet task of explaining the concept of death to a young mind or finding humor in unexpected weightlifting interactions, this episode is a tapestry of emotions. As we promise more engaging stories in future episodes, we invite you to walk alongside us on this heartfelt journey, embracing both the trials and triumphs of parenting a child with severe autism.
