It’s Monday February 4th, Episode number 4. Shelli introduces us to her husband Patrick. They talk about Parenting children with disability and how the church can help. Shelli references an article by Bill Healey called, “ Helping Parents Deal with the Fact that their Child has a Disability.” Article was published in the Council for Exceptional Children in November of 1996. Shelli talks about the stages of adjustment as a reference for working with families. Every family will deal with their realities differently. There is no one size fits all.
