If You Could Tell A New Parent One Thing...

Join the conversation on Reddit

Every parent’s journey is unique, but those first few weeks or months after a child’s diagnosis can feel like standing in the dark, trying to find a light switch.

If you’ve been there, even for a little while, you know how powerful it can be to hear from someone who gets it.

That’s why this week, we’re opening up a real conversation on Reddit:
👉 “What’s one piece of advice you’d give to a new parent navigating a recent child’s diagnosis?”

• Maybe your advice is practical — figuring out care, school, doctors, or finances.

• Maybe it’s emotional — about patience, hope, or just getting through tough days.

Whatever it is, your words could be exactly what another parent needs to read right now.

Let’s help someone feel a little less alone.
