I chat with Dan Boardman, who has been a support worker for a ventilated quadriplegic since he was 21 years old. We chat about the rewards and challenges associated with working so closely with someone in their own home, some of the close calls they have had with the ventilator disconnecting, the emotional support they provide for each other and the importance of having interests outside of the workplace.

Matt Greer – My Battle With Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
I chat with Matt Greer, who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, commonly referred to as MS, 20 years ago. We discuss the early signs that led to his diagnosis, the emotional toll when noticing changes from a degenerative disease, the impact on his family life and how he has adopted his positive attitude and making the most out of life.
