Alone but Unbroken: Solo Parenting a Child with Autism
Yasmin shares her solo parenting journey raising her son J, who has autism, describing the emotional and practical challenges of advocacy, finances, school meltdowns, and everyday decision-making on her own.
She recounts a recent late-night A&E visit for an ear infection that became a small win when J coped well, and reflects on the resilience, growth, and bonding that come from parenting solo, along with self-care strategies that help her keep going.
