Episode 8: Lee and Ben

In this episode we talk to Lee about her experiences of being an adoptive parent to a little boy with additional needs. We hear about their journey from their first meeting, when they recognised that Ben had some differences in his development and no spoken language, to the current day, where Ben chats happily about the importance of antibodies and the adventures of Super Tiger (his own creation!).This is a story about the power of believing in your child and the importance of not listening to everything you are told!
