Kate and Mandy chat to Kate, a warm and colourful Pea mum from country Victoria with a powerful story about her beloved boys.
Kate’s oldest child Michael has an acquired brain injury and her second child Jack is legally blind. Michael was struck by a car while helping his brother cross the road, and spent six months in hospital recovering, including a month in ICU. He’s now non-verbal and requires constant care, but still goes on plenty of adventures like water skiing and skydiving. Jack is still studying and is currently overseas on exchange in the Czech Republic, and navigating a different life to his peers due to his visual impairment. Kate shares their family’s story with a lot of laughs and a quite few f-bombs so make sure you’ve got your headphones in while listening!
Kate is also currently writing a book about her extraordinary journey with her family. You can follow her on Instagram and keep up to date with her progress – good luck Kate and thank you so much for sharing your story with us!
