Fathering A Child With A Disability with Robin Erkkila

This episode of the Restorative Man Podcast features a deep and insightful conversation between Jesse French and his guest Robin Erkkila, focusing on the complexities and emotional journey of raising a child with significant disabilities. Robin shares his personal experience with his son, Drew, who has a rare condition that leaves him significantly disabled and requires round-the-clock care, including non-verbal communication and the use of a G-tube for feeding. The discussion covers the challenges and emotional rollercoaster of parenting a child with special needs, the support systems in place, and the lessons in kindness, awareness, and presence that come from living with and loving a child with unique needs.
