A place to begin

Support for your journey.

Trusted resources for people living with hydrocephalus and the people who care about them.

These resources are provided by the Hydrocephalus Association.

For the people who care

You belong in this story, too.

Parents, siblings, partners, and friends are part of the journey. Support can be practical, emotional, and different from one day to the next.

01

Let the person lead.

Ask what would be helpful. Make room for preferences, independence, and the parts of life beyond a diagnosis.

02

Offer something specific.

A meal, a ride, company, or help with everyday tasks can be easier to accept than a general offer.

03

Find support for yourself.

Caregivers deserve connection and understanding, too. Established support networks can be a place to begin.
