Kim Pittenger by The Hidden Workforce published on 2022-02-03T20:39:53Z Kim Pittengers awesome Mom talks about supporting her daughter's sudden onset disability. How it affected her, her work and family. She went to different hospitals and carried a lot of work into the hospital room, making sure to not skip work and be there for the company. To make sure that she can pay the medical fees and be there for her daughter at the same time. When her daughter was three months old she had breathing issues, sinus infections. She is on strong antibiotics and steroids. They did a lot of lab work, tests and diagnosis that she had never heard of before. She researched on her own, did a google and understood what’s wrong with her daughter. They went to a psychologist and psychiatrist which did retire when Allison started getting better but still got her phone number and can still call her anytime they want. Having a dog also somehow changed her daughter now and today they already have 3 doodles. She may have experienced trauma but is still able to overcome it.
