Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder: A Journey with Music and Education

It's the invisible disability you can't see the brain damage without specialized equipment... Any amount of alcohol can cause damage and, like you said, at any time during the pregnancy, less than a quarter ounce of alcohol can cause permanent brain damage to a developing fetus.
How does one navigate life with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD)? In this eye-opening episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods chats with Morgan Fawcett, who shares his personal journey living with FASD. Diagnosed at 15, Morgan has faced numerous challenges but has also found unique ways to cope and thrive. He delves into the critical need for better education about FASD, particularly in schools, and discusses the alarming rise in FASD births each year.
Morgan's story is a testament to resilience and the power of creativity, as he reveals how Native American flute music has been a therapeutic outlet for him. This episode is a blend of heartfelt experiences and practical advice, making it essential listening for anyone looking to understand and support those affected by FASD.
