Keepers of the Nest

Behind every survivor stands a keeper, the quiet strength holding the world together.This space honors the caregivers, partners, parents, and friends who navigate love, loss, and resilience in the shadow of brain injury, neurological trauma, and chronic illness.Here, they share their stories, not as experts, but as witnesses. As protectors. As the ones who stay when everything changes.

🕊️ If you’re a caregiver who would like to share your story, please contact us! Your voice belongs here.
