Dads of Daughters with Disorders (DDD)

By: Michael Wear
  • Summary

  • Being a dad to a child with a rare genetic disorder, I came to the realization years ago that there isn't much support for dads in regards to coming to terms with her diagnosis, her treatment, the life-altering effects on myself and my family. This podcast is the answer! If you're a dad with a child with a medical condition of any kind I hope you can utilize this podcast to help you come to grips, learn to cope, and overcome the daily challenges we face as dads of children with disorders.

    In episode 3 of the DDD podcast, I take a look at the medication that Emmalyn was taking when she was first diagnosed with ASA. I discuss the mental and physical toll medications can have, and the side effects her meds have had on her. We look at the mental toll meds have on a dad, and how even something as simple as altering meds to something better, can be devastating on a fathers mental health.
