In this episode of Blether with Barberra, Brian speaks with Jill Thompson about her daughter Carly, the signs Jill noticed when Carly was still a baby, and the long struggle to get diagnosis, recognition, help and support.

Jill shares how she knew from around six months that something was not right, how she was dismissed and made to feel like the problem, and how life became a battle across healthcare and education systems.

This is a sensitive conversation about parental instinct, rare childhood conditions, disability, diagnosis, family pressure and what happens when parents are not believed.
