The Caregiver’s Guide: What We Wish We Knew

Being a caregiver isn’t something you train for — it’s something you survive. This downloadable guide was built from the trenches of brain injury, dementia, and neurological decline. It’s packed with real tools, routines, humor, and hard-earned wisdom that we wish someone had handed us on day one.

💡 Inside you'll find:

  • Our best caregiver routines

  • Tips for handling flooding, sundowning, and memory loss

  • Practical tools that work in the real world

  • Supportive words from someone who gets it
