Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Chelsea, mum to Lucas. When Lucas was just two, Chelsea noticed he wasn’t talking at all. After years of frustration and limited progress with standard speech therapy, Lucas was finally diagnosed at six with Childhood Apraxia of Speech. Fast forward just over two years, and with the right specialist, intensive support, he’s making incredible progress. Chelsea has thrown herself into raising awareness—attending CAS family days, even doing a sponsored skydive in 2024 to fund assessments, and helping to create an official CAS pathway in her local area. In this episode, Chelsea shares the highs and lows of their journey so far, and her passion for making sure children like Lucas get the support they need to reach their potential.”#ChildhoodApraxiaOfSpeech #CAS #ApraxiaOfSpeech #ApraxiaAwareness #SpeechTherapy #SpeechAndLanguageTherapy #SLT #SLP #ParentAdvocacy #FamilyAdvocacy #CASJourney #ApraxiaSupport #SpeechDisorder #CommunicationDisorder #RareSpeechDisorder #ApraxiaParents #ApraxiaKids #Resilience #Hope #InclusiveCommunication #CASCommunity #ApraxiaPathway #CASFamily #ApraxiaFundraising #SkydiveForCAS #ApraxiaWarrior #ApraxiaStrong #MakingProgress #SupportForCAS #EveryChildDeservesAVoice
