Episode Synopsis

Families are often told to consider the burden their child with special needs will have on their neurotypical children. What better way to remove the stigma than to allow the opportunity for their siblings to speak on their experience! Five children ranging in ages 13 to 17 joined the Extra to Love podcast to discuss their prospective of having a sibling with Trisomy 18 and Trisomy 13. The teens get vulnerable with an inside look into their experience, they share about their joys and struggles with each other on this episode! Listen in to hear about the beautiful journey that is absolutely worth it to them!Extra To Love is a non-profit organization that aims to improve the lives of people with Trisomy 18 and Trisomy 13 by supporting their families.
