Episode Description

ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 025

A Grandfather's Story of Guardianship, Caregiving and Advocacy

Parents and caregivers often hear, "I don't know how you do it". We do it because we have no choice and we do it well because we do have a choice. We do it because we're human beings who love each other. This is a touching story of hope, kindness and giving back. Jeremy Kredlo is sharing his story of becoming the legal guardian of his granddaughter, Kylee.
