From people who came through it

  • “Not sure if this makes sense. I'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. I had to stop googling. It made everything worse.”

  • “In 2023, that was me. Respite once a month. That was my life. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.”

  • “To whoever needs this: This time last year I was exactly where you are. A wheelchair van we can not afford. That was my life. I'm volunteering here now. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Praying for you.”

  • “I was in the same place this time last year. I remember planning for when we are gone like it was yesterday. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.”
