  • Just found this!

    My husband’s side of the family suffers from blood clotting disorders and my children probably will, too. I randomly found this podcast and immediately felt some comfort. I’m not alone in this and neither are you. Great storytelling and production value. I wish they came out more often (it’s monthly). I’ll be getting my family to listen, too.
