How Can We Best Support the Seriously Ill?

#98 Great.com Talks With… CaringBridge

Everyone deserves togetherness and compassion when they experience serious illness or injury. In this episode we talked with Liwanag Ojala from CaringBridge about connecting families and friends through an online support network.

Controlling the Narrative around Your Health Journey 

It is important that we normalize health issues and encourage people to document their experiences and needs. CaringBridge solves many of the logistical challenges families face when confronted with illness. It is a social medium for sharing important news with those that matter most. Liwanag explains that tools such as their newly-released planner inform friends and family when and how they can provide practical help. This takes a lot of the stress out of the health journey.
