'Motherhood & Special Needs' with Becky Wall
Welcome back. On this episode the focus is on moms. As moms we have our own unique stories to share. And as we approach World Down Syndrome Day, we are delighted to have Becky Wall on with us again to share her story as a mom of a son diagnosed with both Down Syndrome and Autism. Becky works for FamilyLife as a field staff leader serving families and moms connected to disability, and on this episode she and I really enjoyed getting to catch up mom to mom. Let’s get the conversation started.
Bio:
Becky is married to Garett and they have two children, Lily (14) and Isaac (12). Shortly after their son Isaac was born they received the news that Isaac had Down Syndrome. Just before the age of 10, Isaac was diagnosed with Autism as well. Becky serves part-time with FamilyLife - a ministry of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ) and is a Field Staff Leader serving families and moms connected to disability. Her prayer is to create spaces for families touched by disability to hear the hope of the Gospel and find purpose in growing God’s kingdom with the life He has given them. A graduate of University of Louisville, Becky has been on staff with Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ) for 21 years. She served 20 years with the college campus ministry and this past year moved over to FamilyLife - a Cru ministry. A native of Troy, Michigan, Becky is married to Garett and they have two children, Lily and Isaac. They currently reside in Louisville, KY. Isaac.

For a family raising a child with special needs, life can be difficult. There are many storms to weather and struggles to address, and we often feel isolated and alone due to the nature of our circumstances. Families have a need to connect and find resources, a need to be encouraged, and a need for hope as we walk down what can be a very hard road at times. Hope on the Hard Road Special Needs Podcast was created for this purpose. Our vision is to grow a thriving community, where families with children of all ages with special needs can feel connected, be encouraged, and find hope for the road ahead.
