Our April Friends of La Leche League Chat is “Parenting or Grandparenting a Child with a Disability: What is the Real Deal?” with Louise Cox and Chris Newlon.
Join us for a candid and honest, heart‑level conversation about what it’s really like to parent or grandparent a child with a disability. Together we’ll share stories, challenges, and the deep joys that shape this journey. We’ll share real experiences, practical wisdom, and the hope that comes from community as we support each other. We’ll talk about what we learned in LLL that gives us strength. It can be beautiful, complicated, and sometimes lonely. Come and hear from other caregivers as we talk about the real deal—what helps, what hurts, and what keeps us going.

Our Chats are a benefit of membership in Friends of La Leche League. Members meet once a month for about an hour. We invite you to try us out and see if these Chats add something to your life. If so, please support our work by joining our organization. You can use the form online, and we also offer options to mail in your check, use Paypal, or contact our Treasurer for help.
Coming up in May: Our Mother’s Day Chat is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, May 21 at 5 pm Central. Please send photos of you and your children as attachments with “Mother’s Day Chat” in the subject line. You’ll get bonus points if you can share photos of you and your child(ren) in their early days and more recently, or a multi-generational photo.
