Receiving a genetic diagnosis, or the absence of one, can be life-altering for families. This webinar explores the emotional responses that emerge as parents and caregivers adapt to a diagnosis or ongoing uncertainty. Through discussion with a panel of parents, the session will highlight the complex process of accepting versus adjusting, and the challenges of navigating a child’s medical complexity. Participants will gain insight into the lived experiences of families and the types of support needed as they work toward building a new normal.
