The Silent Struggle Video Series
The BC Brain Injury Association in partnership with Roll.Focus. are honoured to bring you eight unique stories of caregivers, a part of the Stories for Caregivers initiative supported by TELUS Fund. We will be highlighting their journeys of supporting a loved one through brain injury and presenting each of these videos over the next eight weeks, so stay tuned! It is our desire that by sharing these stories as a community, the hope the caregivers and survivors found in the midst of suffering will be an encouragement to you.
