    When Emma was diagnosed we were bombarded with information from all over the place and overwhelmed with it all, we probably didn't read much of it. If we had been introduced to brainstrust and given a Brain Box, we would have had a starting point with all the necessary info in one pack. We now feel the support that we should have had from day one is there. We have battled for years to find Emma the support she needs, but now we have the right avenues to connect with the right people going forward. Find out more
