Episode 88 of The Couples Expert Podcast is a special podcast because it touches on something deeply personal for Stuart. He talks about raising a child with a chronic illness or special needs and how the love and support of the family are needed in order to accomplish this. Stuart’s daughter was born with a disorder called Esophageal Atresia/Tracheoesophageal Fistula (EA/TEF for short). Stuart and Sarah’s mom had incredible challenges in raising her. They had to adapt , learn and overcome so much in Sarah’s early childhood. No parent would wish to have a sick baby, but when that happens, there is a shift in what’s important in a parent’s life. Stuart and Sarah’s mom were her staunchest advocates and there was more than one time that they had to step up to make sure that Sarah was getting the proper care. They learned to live in the moment and not to wish things were different. They also never blamed each other for Sarah’s problems. To accept that this was the hand their child was dealt and this is the life she was given. This gave them a sense of calm about things and no regrets about “what if’s”. Stuart discusses how you need to separate the child from the illness and teach them that their condition is just something they’ll have to deal with and get on with life. No sense in wishing it were otherwise. Stuart discussed how celebrations of all the firsts in life are exponentially more joyful because they are so meaningful because Sarah’s mom and Dad never thought they’d ever get to have those firsts with their child.
