171 Wendy McNiel: An Adoption Story. When Gratitude and Grief coexist

18 min•8 augusti 2024

Hey Friends~ 

Today on "The Language of Play," we have Wendy McNiel with us. Wendy was adopted at the age of 12, and she has a fascinating story to share. She talks about her move from Puerto Rico, learning English, and adjusting to a new family and life. Wendy also opens up about her experiences with a speech impediment, stuttering, and a learning disability.

Her journey is a mix of challenges and gratitude, offering valuable insights for parents navigating adoption and supporting children with special needs. Listen in to hear Wendy's story of faith, journaling, and personal growth. Her experiences will inspire and help you understand the unique journey of adopted children and those facing similar challenges.

Always cheering you on!
