In this episode, Sandy interviews Chris about the challenges and the rewards of being the primary caregiver for Bryce during the early years of his autism. He talks about his guilt, his research, his depression, and how he overcame it. He also talks about Daddy School and how he has found ways to bond with Bryce by meeting him where he is at - not trying to make Bryce become someone he has not been created to be.
This will be a great episode for other Dad's to listen to who may not be regular listeners of our podcast.

Bryce is a funny, mechanical, HAPPY little guy who was diagnosed with autism at age two and is now ten years old. His pure joy makes this world a much better place!
We are humbled and honored to follow our calling and be Autism Ambassadors while helping others understand our world a little more than they did before listening to the podcast. We also feel called to bring light to a community that has experienced dark days after the "diagnosis". (Luke 1:79)
