    It's me, hi! I'm the problem, it's me....... Or is it Primitive Reflexes?

    OK, she's a rambly one BUT I have been so desperate to talk about this subject and it's relevance to the Cleft Community. I've not made any notes on this before talking but I hope it gives enough information to start off what I hope will be a number of these types of episodes. For reference, these are the links for some very important people: Brain Development UK: https://www.braindevelopment.co.uk Dr Kyle Daigle: https://www.instagram.com/dr.kyledaigle/ Do you think the Cleft Community may be impacted by retained primitive reflexes? I can't wait to record more about this subject!

    Your Story: Stav Papaspyrou (@stavpapaspyrou)

    I talked with the lovely Stav about her experience growing up cleft affected in a Greek-Cypriot family. Stav exudes confidence and all round loveliness and I think her story is one that parents of Cleft Affected young people may be interested to hear! Can you count how many times both Stav and I say 'crack on'...! And those were the ones I didn't edit out! Haha! As ever, feedback, follows and shares are greatly appreciated.

    How is a Cleft Palate Repaired? A Q&A With a UK Cleft Surgeon

    I am grateful to have had the opportunity to chat with Mr O'Neill again - this time about Cleft Palate Surgery!  I have tried to ask all of the questions I wish I knew before my son's surgery and with the time we had we went from the very beginning of what is the function of a palate to techniques used during surgery.  I hope this episode will help people who are cleft affected who are intrigued by cleft surgery and what they may have had done, for parents, friends and family to learn more about surgery and Health Professionals who work with the Cleft Community.  I would love any feedback on this episode - let me know if you learnt anything you didn't know before?!

    How is a Cleft Lip Repaired? A Q&A with a UK Cleft Surgeon

    I am SO pleased to finally put this episode up on my Podcast!  I recorded these episodes with Mr O'Neill (who I actually call Dr Tom the whole way through this episode *embarrassed face!*) in 2021.  I asked Mr O'Neill everything from defining a cleft lip, pre-assessments, how surgery is performed to his top tip for cleft parents.  This was an honest, insightful and heartwarming episode - it was more than I could have hoped for. This episode will be perfect for newly diagnosed parents, those due surgery to Healthcare Professionals who work with the Cleft Community.  I would love to hear any thoughts on this episode, so please DM me on Instagram if you get chance! @dontgetlippyuk. Our next episode is already ready to go too, so it won't be long til you hear from me again!
