Emma Rennison chats with host Lisa McKelvey about the difficulties her mum went through with getting medical assistance for what was originally thought to be hip dysplasia for herself as a child.
Then years later, as a mother, Emma sits in medical appointments and by her childrens bedside, while they have extensive orthopedic conditions as well. The Rennisons now have a diagnosis of the genetic condition - Multiple Epiphyseal Dysplasia (MED)
Emma is a wonderful mother, wife, writer, story teller and disability advocate from Melbourne, Victoria.
Episode 7 of The Long Road Podcast takes you on a beautiful journey of self discovery, advocacy and acceptance.
