The Perfect Gift Podcast
Rufus and Le’Keisha Johnson adopted their daughter and loved her at first sight. But, they had no idea their daughter would have a multitude of special needs, which thrust them into a whole new world. The Perfect Gift Podcast follows our journey as a special needs family. In this podcast, we plan to cover a wide array of topics ranging from adoption to managing various medical needs of our child. In addition, we will interview families that have similar journeys and discuss their daily experiences. We hope you enjoy The Perfect Gift podcast.
