Show notes

These Connected Parents Leslie Ponzo and Julie Walters come to bring awareness to the disorder PCDH19 that effects a significant amount of children in our world today, and teach us about signs, symptoms, and treatments so these children can lead a healthier life. As a long-time educator and the mother of a daughter with PCDH19 Epilepsy, Leslie has experienced the mentoring process from both sides. She knows only too well the many questions parents can have when told their child needs to be evaluated or diagnosed, and how overwhelming all those questions can feel. If there’s anything she’s learned from her own experience, it’s that the journeys of life can be challenging but empowering. In her work supporting students and their families, she strives for empathy and understanding, and that’s something she hopes to bring to this community as well.

Produced by Matty Rosenberg and Jennifer Hammoud @ Radio Free Rhiniecliff
