In this eye-opening episode of Real Lives of TBI Wives, host Erika Brouillette speaks with Robin Szymkowski, a devoted wife and caregiver who opens up about the life-altering moment her husband suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Robin recounts the shock of the accident, the relentless stream of medical complications, and the steep learning curve that came with managing her husband’s evolving care needs.
She offers an honest look into the emotional exhaustion, financial burdens, and the detailed care techniques she had to master—while still advocating fiercely for her husband's quality of life. Robin also emphasizes the critical role of self-care, support systems, and the strategies she’s used to navigate a journey no one prepares you for.
This episode is a must-listen for any wife walking the long, uncertain road of TBI caregiving, filled with raw truth, hard-earned wisdom, and hope for those seeking guidance and strength.
