The study aims to determine the experiences of Turkish mothers with physical disabilities in the care of their children and their expectations from nurses in this process and ensure the establishment of strategic recommendations for nurses in line with these expectations. This qualitative descriptive study included 21 mothers with physical disabilities of nondisabled children aged 0-18 years. Data analysis was conducted using the traditional content analysis method in the Max Qualitative Data Analysis Analytics Pro 2020 program. Six themes were obtained from the analysis. Of the six themes determined, the themes "Prenatal Emotions and the Need for Support," "Postpartum Emotions and Childcare," "Strategies Facilitating the Care Process," "Child's Safety," "Advantages and Disadvantages," and "Expectations and Recommendations" are related to childcare, while the theme "Expectations and Recommendations" is related to expectations from nurses and other healthcare professionals and recommendations to mothers with physical disabilities. The participants stated that nurses' training and attempts to provide information related to their needs resulting from physical disabilities were limited.

Introduction: Women with disabilities may experience particular difficulties in starting and developing in sport, also in the Paralympic context. Although a great deal of research has been conducted with high-performance athletes, relatively few studies have focused on athletes with disabilities, especially Paralympic women using person-first approaches. Thus, the main objective of this study is to understand, through the experience and opinion of a Paralympian female athlete, how these athletes reach their full potential, identifying the elements and initiatives that can influence (whether positively or negatively) their sporting trajectory and developmental milestones.
