#105 Talking FASD with Oshay’s Maryelen and Paula Mcphail
Today’s show is an inspirational story of what determination, advocacy and drive can achieve! It is the story of Maryelen Mcphail, a foster and adoptive mom and her daughter Paula, co-founders of Oshay’s, an FASD organization, in Scotland.
You will hear their journey to getting a diagnosis and the roadblocks they encountered before and after from their unique perspective as mom and daughter. We also find out how they used those blocks as stepping stones to help others.
What started as home-based advocacy has turned into a charity and a Center to help other families in Scotland with programs and supports.
Make sure you stay tuned to the end you to hear my surprise and delight that we share a favourite activity, which not only provides bonding time for them as a family, but also provides regulation for both kids and adults!
