Any parent whose child has been given a diagnosis knows that it's a punch to the gut.
Shazi opens up about the day her son, Zane, was given his autism diagnosis, and she was told he may never speak. You’ll hear a candid conversation with her mentor, Lisa Ackerman, founder of TACA (The Autism Community in Action). Lisa shares her son's story, and why it propelled her to provide education, support, and hope to other families living with autism.
Developmental pediatrician Dr. Stephen Cowan, who diagnosed Zane, offers steps parents can take to move forward after a diagnosis and explains why the future holds so much hope for children with special needs.
