Healing Looks Different For Patients and Caregivers.

Welcome to the I Saved You, Now Do the Dishes podcast! Join Carrie Severson as she shares stories from her experiences as an advocate and caregiver during her husband's cancer journey. This podcast offers insights into patient care and navigating the complexities of cancer treatment, including chemotherapy. In this episode, I’m sharing what it actually looks like to be two years past my husband’s cancer treatment… and still very much in the process of healing. Because here’s the truth no one really prepares you for: patients and caregivers don’t heal on the same timeline—or in the same way. I talk about the quiet, ongoing work of putting myself back together. The things that are helping (and sometimes just getting me through): EFT tapping, long walks, snuggling with the dog… and yes, probably crying. This isn’t a neat, tied-up-with-a-bow kind of episode. It’s real, it’s messy, and it’s honest about what comes after survival. If you’ve ever been the one holding it all together, this conversation is for you.🎧 I Saved You.
