My baby girl.

None of this was the plan.

A few years ago, I was just trying to help one little girl navigate a scary experience.

I never could have imagined that the little girl we sat beside in the hospital, heartbroken, scared, and so unsure of her future, would inspire a book, a bear, a hospital program, and a community.

Or that she’d be out here representing New Hampshire for the Shaw’s Give A Smile campaign benefiting Boston Children’s Hospital.

We’re so proud to partner with a program that supports the hospital that gave Charlotte her childhood back. ❤️

If you’re shopping at Shaw's this summer, consider making a donation and swipe to see the cute little face that might be greeting you at checkout. 😊

Courage is contagious. 💜

This community is THE BEST.

This weekend, we watched families connect with Hope and Waves, share their stories, make new friends, and come together in a powerful show of support for the epilepsy community.

From longtime advocates to families just beginning their journey, the Boston Walk for Epilepsy was a beautiful reminder that no one has to navigate epilepsy alone.

Thank you to , every family, volunteer, sponsor, advocate, and supporter who made the day so special.

Together, we’re making epilepsy history. 💜

As a med mom, mom of young kids, and small business owner who somehow keeps adding more to her plate (it’s me 🙋‍♀️ I’m somehow)… I haven’t had quite as much time for social media lately 🤪

But honestly, you guys are a huge part of what keeps this all feeling so important to keep showing up for. We are so incredibly appreciative of all the support, shares, orders, and love for Brave Bears Club. It truly means more than you know 💜

So as a little thank you…

Med mom remix
(and by remix I mean imagine because no lyrics have actually been changed 😂)

But real talk… when your child is diagnosed with a rare disease, you stop caring what people think. You become exactly who you are.💫

Who can relate?💖

Honestly, that’s a small silver lining.✨
And kinda freeing.👻

Mother’s Day is over but this still stands 💜

Hope you’ve all treated yourselves to something lately because you deserve the world.

And honestly… the voice note audio? Yep. xoxox

last week recap.

we prepped a lot.

Charlotte can do hard things and she does them often. Blood draws have always been especially hard for her. Has anyone else heard this about redheads?👩‍🦰🧑‍🦰I come from a very large Irish Catholic family so I grew up around a LOT of redheads and while my kids don’t scream “redhead,” they definitely have the strawberry blonde thing going on 🍓🥰

Accessing veins has always been really difficult for Charlotte and the amount they can usually get from one vein often isn’t enough, leading to even more pokes, which has made for some really hard moments over the years.

For shots and needles in general though, the .health prepare + recover patches were honestly life changing 🙏

Full transparency: we didn’t even get to the part of using them for blood draws yet, so no official review there 😂 but for shots and needle anxiety in general? HUGE fans.

I always want to be honest about what helps. I mean… I basically upended my entire life and now make teddy bears, so you could say I’m committed 🤪

But we definitely do not know it all.

We just try to share the things we wish existed when we were newly diagnosed, the things other families might relate to, and the little things that make hard days even 2% easier… or at least make you laugh a little.

While we take diagnosis, advocacy, and this journey seriously, we also want this little corner of the internet to feel light. Helpful. Whimsical. Occasionally dark humor. Not too serious all the time 💖

And if we don’t share every hard moment, med moms already know why. Sometimes you’re just too busy living it.

We really appreciate everyone checking in, sharing advice, support, and making us feel less alone 💖

circa 2024 but somehow still very accurate 😅💜

re-sharing a conversation on from our very first epilepsy event trip. the early days of Brave Bears Club and .love.retreats with our California king & queen, also med parents.

sometimes you just need:
the group chat
the real talk
the “wait… how do I get approved for this?” moments
the “where do I even find that?” conversations

wish we could do this all the time because the real, unfiltered, not overly planned conversations are honestly the ones that matter most.

that’s exactly what this series is going to be:
sharing what we’ve learned, found helpful, wish we knew sooner, and things worth knowing along the way 🫶

more like this coming soon ✌️
