Care for the caregiver

Small, realistic ways to refill your own cup while you care for everyone else.

You can’t pour from an empty cup. Caring for an injured child is a marathon, and you’re the one carrying the water.

Start small: eat something, let someone bring dinner, tell one person what’s really going on. You don’t need a spa day — you need enough to keep showing up. That counts.
