Special Needs Siblings

Kelli & Kyle: Our Story

Everyone has a story to tell. We tell our story to help families and caregivers of special needs children feel encouraged and less alone.

I’m Kelli and I’m mom to Kyle, who is 14 years old and has a rare genetic condition called SYNGAP1, which causes his special needs (intellectual disability, developmental delays, epilepsy, hypotonia, nonverbal, autism spectrum disorder, …).

We share videos on our YouTube channel to demonstrate what life is like for our family. Check it out HERE.

I also write about my experience on this site – the challenges, the heartaches, the perseverance, and the joy – in hopes that I can help other mothers and families feel less isolated in their own journeys.
