In today's episode, we will be talking to Damien Lane. Damien is the father of Alex, now in his early 20s. He has been a carer of his son who is severely autistic.
In this episode we talk about all things fatherhood, how Alex has changed Damien’s life beyond recognition, the trials and the joys of their journey together. Damien shares his experiences with openness and vulnerability.
Listen to this rare insight into a heartfelt story of a family learning how to adapt to the changes and the challenges of their lives as they love and care for Alex whose autism dominates the decisions and shape of family life.
A powerful conversation of truth, advice, tips and humour. From beginning to understand autistic traits in his baby boy, to the final heart wrenching decision to move Alex into a specialist care home.
