Childhood Stroke 05: Invisible Disability
Around 50% of survivors of childhood stroke live with disability, and while some can be seen, children are frequently left with invisible or hidden disabilities. That is, conditions that significantly affect their lives, but aren't always visible to the outside world. Invisible disabilities can include fatigue, cognitive, or thinking difficulties, emotional difficulties, and other neurological issues that can continue long after the stroke occurs.
In this episode of the Childhood Stroke Podcast, we speak to a survivor of childhood stroke and a neuropsychologist to explore the invisible challenges children face after stroke and support systems available to help them navigate their journey.
Guests:
• Tala Olins-Miller, a survivor of childhood stroke, physiotherapist and member of Stroke Foundation's Lived Experience Advisory Group.
• Professor Vicki Anderson, paediatric neuropsychologist with over 25 years' experience working to improve the lives of children with brain injury, including stroke.
