  • Called to Serve: Tabitha’s Family Journey with Cri du Chat
    Apr 5 2026

    In this powerful and deeply personal episode, we sit down with Tabitha Lynch—devoted mom, fierce advocate, and someone whose life has been uniquely shaped by Cri du Chat Syndrome. Tabitha shares her journey growing up alongside two siblings with the syndrome and now raising three of her own children diagnosed with it.

    Cri du Chat Syndrome, also known as 5p- (5p minus), is a rare genetic condition caused by a deletion on the short arm of chromosome 5. It is often characterized by a high-pitched, cat-like cry in infancy, developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, low muscle tone, and challenges with speech and motor skills. Each individual’s journey is different, making awareness and understanding so important.

    Through her story, Tabitha gives us a raw and honest look into the beauty, challenges, and unwavering love that comes with raising children with special needs. Her perspective as both a sibling and a mother offers a unique lens into resilience, advocacy, and the power of community.

    This episode will inspire you, stretch your perspective, and remind you of the strength found in unconditional love. 💛
