    Parenting changes us—but parenting a disabled child has transformed us in ways we never expected. In this episode, we talk about how raising our disabled daughters has reshaped our views on parenting, life, and ourselves. Are we better parents now…or just different ones?

    Drawing from comments from our incredible community on Instagram and Facebook, this conversation explores the joys, guilt, resilience, and growth that come from raising disabled kids.

    In this episode of Raising Disabled, we talked to pediatric oncology nurse Mary Jenner, the founder of The Butterfly Pig. She has created an innovative company that is making toys that mirror real medical equipment that children interact with in the hospital and at home.

    If you would like to donate towards a child receiving a toy from The Butterfly Pig to reduce that child's anxiety surrounding their medical equipment, check out her Wishful Wings program.
