What an absolute honour to present to you on today’s podcast – Mr. Brian Philcox – affectionately known as “Grandpa Brian.” With his wife Bonnie Buxton, he is the founder of FASworld, a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness for FASD and supporting caregivers. Bonnie is author of Damaged Angels, one of the most influential books to this day on Fetal Alcohol. In addition to being parents of an individual on the Spectrum, they created the first FASday, introduced in 1999 to the world, with assistance from Teresa Kellerman in the United States. In this episode Brian shares: Why he calls himself the ignorant FASD philosopher Ideas about mindset, unrequited love and ambiguous loss How he is coping in isolation, without his beloved Bonnie The story of how Cleo and Colette became part of their family Their parenting philosophy and his advice to parents and caregivers Previous, ongoing and future advocacy efforts in his hometown province of Ontario, Canada and around the world. I think you will find hope, validation and success listening to the story of Colette’s journey from a bright, bouncy little girl, to living on the streets, addicted to crack, becoming a parent, relinquishing her parental duties and coming full circle to embracing motherhood for her two boys. You will no doubt be mesmerized by one of the founding fathers of FASD advocacy. I will be so lucky to have just half the energy, zeal and jovial presence this man has, all while staying humble and true to his vision of prevention, awareness and care for FASD.
