I am a mother to 3 adult children. The younger 2, that I share with my husband, have a rare genetic mutation. Their diverse needs include epilepsy, ASD, anxiety, Aphasia, OCD- type behaviours, intellectual disabilities and dysphagia.

Before 2020, I helped run a parents group that provided information for the “transitioning to adulthood” age group. I have also co-led a group for Moms of children with diverse abilities. I like to share the knowledge and experience that I have and to listen to other families journeys
