S1/ E2: Sparks in the Dark: The First 24 Hours After Brain Injury
From Lights On: A NeuroMoms Collective Podcast · 20:20
Show by Erin Palmer, Amanda Ream
Episode 2 of Lights On takes listeners back to the raw first 24 hours of Amanda and Erin's journeys through their children's TBIs. They speak candidly about the fear and grief that consumed those early moments, but also about the surprising warmth that broke through the darkness—gentle comforts, unexpected kindnesses, and the people who showed up with open hearts. Amid the shock and chaos, they remember the small moments of laughter that somehow made space for breath and reminded them they were still human. They reflect on the glimmers they recognized instantly, and the ones that took time to unfold. This episode is an invitation to witness how beauty, connection, humor, and humanity persist—even on the hardest days—and how those tiny sparks can illuminate the path forward.
