Episode Synopsis

Our guest this week is Donna Kirk. She is the author of the book “Finding Mathew”. It is a story about “the sorrows, struggles, and challenges, as well as the amazing Presence of love and joy – that come with being the parent of a child with disabilities”. Donna’s son Mathew was born brain-damaged as a result of oxygen deprivation. At the time (1970) Donna and her husband were advised by doctors to put Mathew in an institution, have another baby as soon as possible, and get on with their life. Needless to say, Donna and her husband did not take that advice! “Finding Mathew” Tells the story of Mathews life to age 40.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
