Welcome to the Working Millennial Women podcast. I am your host, Nikita, and as part of the Modern Muslimah Series, I interview Parisa R, my med school roomie who is now a board certified internal medicine doctor, mom to a special needs child and Bengali-American wife. In this episode, we talk about the struggles that Parisa and her husband Samee have faced since the birth of their first son with special needs. We dive into the emotional rollercoaster of finding out your long-awaited first born child is deaf and may not have a normal development curve. We talk about the challenges a marriage faces while staring down the barrel of uncertainty and ways to cope with them. Would your faith be challenged if you were handed an insurmountable task to raise a special needs child? Let’s hear this brave mom’s story.
