In this (slightly chaotic) episode, I speak to my husband Ben to get his version of our story with our son Leo who has Down syndrome. Ben shares his initial feelings when we got Leo's diagnosis and the ongoing journey of acceptance since. We talk about letting family and friends in and accepting support, and the important role therapy has played in his journey. We also speak about our differing opinions on the benefits of peer support from within the SEND community and why that might be harder for dads to seek out.
