Listen to the podcast episode we reference in this conversation.   6:24 - Suggestions for specific language you can use to speak to your child about a diagnosis.   9:54 - When is the right time to share this with your child who received this diagnosis as well as their siblings?   10:45 - It's important not to avoid talking about the diagnosis or the symptoms with your child, which can inadvertently communicate to them that we don't think they can handle it.   14:41 - If your child is older, how to bring up this conversation and repair anything that they may have inferred and encourage open and honest conversation going forward.   19:00 - How to support the non-afflicted sibling so they know it's okay for them to take up space and also help them feel empathetic for their sibling that takes up a lot of space.     ✨We want to hear from you!
