Show Notes


Tough conversations on the road to marriage may include net worth, credit scores and medical histories. But, for siblings of people with special needs, an additional layer of complexity may need to be grappled with pre-union. 

For the host, an older sister of a man living with autism and an intellectual disability, it was important for her to have this conversation with her soon to be husband, who hadn't experienced autism intimately the way she had. 

Not Your Mama's Autism takes you on a journey on the road to marriage with three couples where at least one partner has a sibling with profound enough special needs that long term care is required. Hear their perspectives and the reasoning behind each.
