Waves of Awareness gathers around the
table to hear the heartfelt story of Brittany and her daughter
Isabella (Bella). Brittany and Bella have been receiving services
with Waves Early Learning for 3 years and going through an
inspiring journey of hard work and perseverance. Staci and Co-Host
Tripp Abney are joined by Waves Early Learning Director Gina Wilson
and Waves Early Interventionist Deana Rothwell, who supports
Brittany and Bella.
Together the group listens to Brittany share her impactful journey
through pregnancy with Bella and the fears and trials Brittany went
through to make it to the hospital. Brittany shares her experience
giving birth to Bella, the diagnosis she received for Bella telling
her every struggle Bella may face in life, and how that has shaped
Brittany as a mother today. The courage and strength Brittany has
faced through motherhood is inspiring to everyone at the table and,
as Brittany's story merges with Waves Early Learning, the group
discusses with importance for a strong team connection. The group
listens to how the support of Deana and her service coordinator was
the support she needed to advocate for her daughter. Listen to
Brittany, Deana, Gina, Staci, and Tripp all discuss the powerful
story Brittany shares and how Early Learning and TEIS are important
to families going through similar journeys.
