Hello All
Lee here (mum of Asialee 3 and Brodie 2)
Asialee, Brodie and Charmaine's son Jack are the inspiration for our charity and new website.
As a parent of a child with special needs and another without, there have been many questions I've had over the years that I've searched hard for the answers to.
So my daughter has (in Asialee's case CP, encephalopathy, congenital hip dysplasia, z foot, reflux)... these are the questions I've wanted answers to:
- WHAT NEXT?
- Tell me more about her condition
- What services and support agencies are available?
- What therapies are available?
- What are our childcare, respite & education options?
- What toys and equipment are available?
- I need some leisure and play ideas
- What funding is available?
- Where do I find self-care tips (for feeding, toileting etc)?
- How can we still enjoy our outdoors and travelling lifestyle?
- How can I get in touch with others who have walked this path and have info to offer?
For years I wished these answers and people were there at the click of a mouse, and instead of being frustrated I have created this network to help others and benefit my kids with the partnership of my friend Charmaine whose son Jack also has special needs.
Our long awaited website http://www.specialaussies.com/ is about to go live! It answers all these questions and more!
And has online chat forums so kids with special needs can chat to eachother, siblings can chat to each other and carers can chat and exchange ideas and offer eachother support.
I invite you to visit the site after November 22nd, the planned GO LIVE date
Love to hear your feedback
Lee
