A mum who faces forking out more than £7,000 for private therapy sessions for her seven-year-old son has said she feels like she needs to be “rich” to support his disability. Natalie Thompson, 38, from the West Midlands, is a single parent to Azuriah, who is autistic, non-verbal, has global development delay and was recently diagnosed with ADHD.
