Episode 26: Lane | Unfortunately Fortunate
In honor of Father’s Day, today we have our first medical, special needs dad on the show! Lane Hagan is the husband to Kathryn and father of Libby (and her two siblings). When she was less than two weeks old, there was medical error in the NICU that harmed Libby, causing her to have severe spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy with an unknown future. Lane has learned so much from his daughter’s life and founded Libby’s Friends, a nonprofit that helps families in Alabama’s special needs community receive equipment and help.
Topics we talked about that you do not want to miss:
- Day 12 in the NICU: the incident that changed their lives
- Lane talks about his faith and his role as a husband
- Libby’s Friends, a nonprofit founded by the family to help other children and families https://libbysfriends.org/
