   Saving the Cerebral Palsy Kids in South Africa - Marilyn Bassin

   In South Africa there is 5 times more common in children than other countries - cerebral palsy is still misunderstood, feared, and even seen as a curse in rural areas. In this deeply moving episode, I speak with Marilyn Bassin about the harsh realities families face: poverty, stigma, and isolation. Together, we explore what it means to raise a child with cerebral palsy where support is scarce and myths run deep. Hear about Boikanyo - The Dion Herson Foundation and what they do to help these families
