Summary

In the fourth episode of season two, we are joined again by our exceptional group of guests made up of those living with various pulmonary fibrosis conditions, their care partners and specialized doctors. In this episode, we discuss the crucial role of care partners, from helping the patients better understand the initial diagnosis to taking on more of the household jobs. This shift in dynamic can be a hard adjustment, but talking to fellow carers going through a similar experience can really help. Ultimately, if the carers aren’t able to get the right support then neither are the people living with these conditions.
