So many of the resources about chronic illness are for the adults - but how do you explain things to a child with chronic illness? Our guest today wrote a children’s book aimed at explaining the concept of chronic illness to a child - in a beautifully inclusive way that encourages bravery and confidence for both the child and caregiver. Mindy is also sharing with us the honest, vulnerable, and loving side of the story from the caregiver’s perspective. This look behind the scenes of what the parent, or partner, or friend is going through when they love someone with a chronic illness - when they don’t have an illness themselves.
