Kim Lucock is my guest this week, sharing the journey of her daughter Jessica, who has faced chronic bowel problems since birth. We talk about Jessica having stoma surgery and the impact it’s had on her life, and the complexities of navigating the education system with a child who has additional health needs. Kim talks about Jessica’s medical anxiety, the realities of living with a chronic condition, and small changes that can be made to public disabled toilets that can make a huge difference to people living with stomas.
