  • Summary

  • Our guest this week is Eli Pierce of Aurora, CO who is a customer service representative at Silk Trade, a UK based software company. Eli is the father of four children, including one who is a spastic quadriplegic with cerebral palsy and epilepsy.

    Eli, and his wife, Cassidy, have been married for 5 years and he is the proud father of four children: Evelyn (14), Elias (11), adopted daughter Annabelle (6) and Ettison (13) who is spastic quadriplegic with Cerebral Palsy and epilepsy.

    For many years, Eli was a single dad with full custody of his three children from his first marriage. Eli's an overcomer dad. He's overcome a challenging upbringing, a challenging first marriage and the ongoing challenges of fathering four children, including one with profound disability.

    Eli's commitment to his family is second to none as he serves as a great role model to those within and outside the disability community.

    More recently Eli has joined the Denver SFN Mastermind Group and seems to be thriving.

    Special Fathers Network -
    SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 800+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: "I wish there was something like this when we first received our child's diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through."

    SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.
