Description
In this week's episode, Mckell Smith is back to answer your questions about speech therapy. Mekell is a Speech and Language Pathologist, as well as a special needs Mom. Speech therapy is so important to so many kids, and won’t believe some of the things speech therapy can actually help with. It’s actually, kind of amazing. Mckell helps you navigate your speech journey by sharing things like when to get your child evaluated, how to prepare for your initial evaluation, what questions to ask, how to ensure the best possible outcome and everything in between.This episode is designed to be a community resource and I hope it helps you to better understand, prepare for, and navigate speech therapy.If you enjoyed this episode, please take 30 seconds and leave a review on apple podcast.

My Son Had His Wish Granted (S1E3): In this episode, I share a very emotional interview I gave last year during the annual Wish-A-Thon. We were helping raise awareness and money for an amazing organization called Wishes Can Happen. They grant wishes to local children with life-threatening or terminal health conditions, like my oldest. It's very difficult to talk about but it's so important to raise awareness for organizations like Wishes Can Happen. They do amazing work and what they provide children like my son, as well as families like mine is beyond measure. This is our story.Wishes Can HappenYou can read all about our trip https://www.theautismdad.com/?s=wishes+can+happen&submit=Search (here).All the pictures for our trip can be found https://www.theautismdad.com/2017/10/16/wishes-can-happen-trip-2017-all-pictures/ (here).http://bit.ly/2ZPjjAx (Support This Podcast)You can find me: https://my.captivate.fm/theautismdad.com (theautismdad.com)Twitter: https://twitter.com/theautismdad by The Autism Dad
