Dodging Bullets: Episode 7 - Balancing Act
In this episode, we explore the challenges parents face balancing work with caring for a child with additional needs, as well as their siblings. Host Andrew Goodson is joined by his wife, Emma Goodson, whose son was diagnosed with Angelman Syndrome at seven months old; Charlotte Cooke, whose daughter was diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) shortly after birth; and Frank Turnbull, whose daughter was born with a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) requiring major heart surgery. We also hear from Stephen Hunt, who provides his perspective as an employer. The panel discusses their personal journeys, the impact on their professional lives, and the vital importance of support networks.
