    Making Sense of It All: Coping, Caregiving and Coming Together

    In this episode, I chat with Sarah Pot, a mother of four and family engagement advocate with two daughters, both who have Chitayat-Hall Syndrome. In our conversation,  we chat about the importance of “sense-making,” to cope with the uncertainty and complexities that come with caregiving, but also the joy in learning and honouring our child’s unique personalities and the stories they want to share with the world.   We chat about the pivotal moments that helped her family thrive, from the life-changing role that therapies have played to the building of a support network of people and professionals who truly “get it.” Sarah also gives us a glimpse into her role as a family engagement team member at CanChild, and the remarkable work they do to improve the lives of children with disabilities and their families.  This conversation is a beautiful reminder of the power of perspective and the importance of coming together to learn from each other.
