In this episode of Beyond the Spectrum – Conversations with Parents on Autism and Beyond, we take an unexpected journey from fishing in Oman to discussing autism and alternative treatments.

Meet Claire, a boat captain in Oman, whose son Leo is autistic. When mainstream approaches didn’t give the results she was hoping for, she explored the controversial but intriguing path of stem cell therapy. In this candid and thought-provoking chat, Claire shares her family’s experience, the challenges they faced, and what led her to give this treatment a go.

This story is a little different from our usual episodes, but definitely worth a listen. Could stem cell therapy open up new possibilities for autism intervention? Tune in, keep an open mind, and let us know your thoughts.

If you'd like to get in touch with Claire, let us know and we’ll pass on her details. And if you ever find yourself in Oman, make sure to book a fishing trip with her - it’s an adventure you won’t forget!
