This week’s episode is honest, vulnerable, raw, tearful, extremely challenging, brave, heart breaking, and also hopeful.
This is Lee Tonk’s 1st time telling his story. He is a private person and for most of Remy’s life he traveled this journey of parenting a child with a disability in silence and alone. And, it is emotional. We both cry. We laugh a little too.
But, a lot of what Lee shares is brutally honest. At times, I cringed at his experiences and my heart felt the tug of sorrow and grief.
This episode might be really hard for some of you to listen to but I really encourage you to take the time needed to hear Lee, understand his journey, and know that if you’re going through a similar situation, there is hope. As Lee says towards the end of our discussion, I’d give it all up to have her back.”
Thank you for listening. I hope you know you aren’t alone. Please let me know if this episode helped you feel a little more connected to our community of parents and children.
