Rebecca is American and has two children. We share our experiences of the challenges we faced getting the correct diagnosis for our children and how important it is to get professionals who understand and support the whole family at this challenging time. Rebecca talks about her son Jacob getting the diagnosis of Sensory Processing Differences only, while many of us in the UK only tend to hear about SPD as a dual diagnosis, alongside autism, Fragile X syndrome or Down Syndrome amongst others. Rebecca talks about choosing to home school both her children and how this works for her family, about creating a home schooling community where families can meet up and socialise. Rebecca talks about writing a blog on her family’s experience of having a child with SPD, the strategies that have worked and how this has led to her putting it all together in her brilliant book- Sensational Kids, Sensational Families https://sensationalkidssensationalfamilies.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/SensationalKidsSensationalFamilies/ If you appreciate these podcasts, please consider donating a £1 or more to help cover the costs associated with the production of these podcasts.
