Prioritizing Self-care

For those with a debilitating disease, a caregiver is an essential part of life, often sacrificing their own needs out of devotion to a family member or loved one. November’s National Family Caregivers Month allows us to share appreciation for those unsung heroes who make a difference for patients every day. I am sharing my story as a pulmonary fibrosis (PF) caregiver and Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF) Ambassador to shine a light on the disease and inspire families as they navigate a difficult diagnosis.
