Embrace the Blessing
You didn't choose this road — but here you are, walking it the best you can. Some days are breathtaking. Some days are brutal. And most days you just need to know someone else understands. That's exactly what Embrace the Blessing is for. I'm Sandy Deppisch, and for 24 years I've been walking this road alongside my son Josiah, a young adult with Down syndrome, nonspeaking Autism, and ADHD. Every week we gather — real parents, real stories, real encouragement. Let's walk the road less traveled together.

ETB 15: Staying Strong When Life Gets Hard with Sandra Weber ~ Part 1
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode I talk with Sandra Weber, special needs preschool teacher and mother with 8 children of her own. Though life has come at her full force, Sandra's outlook in the midst of numerous difficult circumstances is truly remarkable. She faces challenges with a positive perspective and staunch determination; enduring overwhelming hardship. She is most definitely a pillar of strength for her family and an inspiration to others.
Sandra discusses the unique situations her family has faced, including the birth of triplets born at 32 weeks; 2 of whom have Down syndrome, while a 7 year old sibling was battling brain cancer and their 20 month old sibling passed away from an accidental drowning. This is part 1 of a 2 part episode.
Tune in next week for the second half of the story.
