Crisis and Comfort: Grandma's Wisdom
Manage episode 433951514 series 3512833
Welcome to the Medical Moms of NICU podcast! I'm Tanisha, a medical mom of NICU to a kidney warrior and cancer fighter, and a pandemic mom of two under two. In today's episode, we dive deep into the challenges and triumphs of raising a medically complex child.
This episode centers around a critical emergency with my oldest son, Jaleel. From a sudden trip to the ER due to severe respiratory distress to his subsequent intubation in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, I share the emotional and physical toll of navigating such life-threatening situations.
Amidst the chaos, I reflect on the invaluable wisdom passed down from my grandmother, which continues to guide me through these trying times. I also highlight the importance of building a strong support network, whether through family, friends, or the broader NICU community.
Join us as we discuss the significance of prompt medical intervention, the power of spiritual discernment, and the critical role of breastfeeding in supporting a NICU child's immune system. This heartfelt episode is a testament to the resilience and strength of medical moms everywhere.
Thank you for listening, and please keep Jaleel and all medically complex children in your prayers. For more resources and support, visit medicalmomsandnicu.com.
