    Ep71: Christian Garzia: Humor, Fairness, and Protection

    We’re excited to share our latest Sibling Advocacy episode on PWS United. In this ongoing series, we talk with siblings about how they show up for their loved ones with PWS, whether at the kitchen table, at school, among friends, in government spaces, or anywhere their sibling may need support.  This episode is hosted by Dorothea Lantz, PWSA | USA's Director of Community Engagement and mom to Hunter, living with PWS. Dorothea spoke with 15-year-old Christian Garzia, the younger brother of Rocco, a 21-year-old living with PWS. Christian brings some humor to this conversation and talks about what fairness looks like in their family dynamic, why he's not worried about the future with Rocco, and how advocacy looks like protection.  Learn more about Prader-Willi syndrome and PWSA | USA at www.pwsausa.org

    Ep69: Joe Gill: Inclusion, Purpose, and the Little Things

    Welcome to another episode in our podcast series, Sibling Advocacy, where we speak with siblings about how they show up for their loved one with PWS, whether at the kitchen table, at school, in friend groups or government, or any place where their sibling may need them.  Today's episode, hosted by Elaine Towle, PWSA | USA's Advocacy Specialist and mom to James, living with PWS, is with Joe Gill. Joe is the older brother of Gavin, an almost 20-year-old living with PWS. Joe talks about growing up with PWS in the house, what inclusion looks like for Gavin, the need for opportunities for adults, and offers some advice for other siblings on this journey. In 2022, as part of raising funds and awareness, Joe ran the Boston Marathon.  With a diagnosis as challenging as PWS can be, we hope families will find this episode, and this series, refreshing and insightful. Thank you to all the siblings advocating and showing up for their loved one with PWS!

    Ep67: Broken Systems, Enduring Love, Single Caregivers Series

    Carrie and Anne spoke with two single caregivers, Annie, mom to Adebu who is 36, and Lon, dad to Max who is 31. Both Adebu and Max are living with PWS. This conversation dives into some challenging and very real aspects of caring for an adult with PWS. Some of it relates directly to single parents of individuals with PWS, and some of it to the cracks and growing lesions in the support systems for adults with disabilities. This is an important and beautiful episode, for its rawness, the vulnerability and willingness of the parents to share their stories, and the reality of the challenges they face when it comes to employment, relationships, obtaining services, and mental health which Annie says is, “the hidden casualty of my life.” Please listen with care: If you are caregivers for young individuals with PWS, this episode is likely not for you. It is important to remember that PWS affects each family differently and that the landscape of treatments and services continues to change.
