Dear Husband | Letter 3: A Family’s NICU story

About this episode

In the third letter of our NICU Awareness Month mini-series, Katherine (@drkatherwrites) writes to her husband about the experience of watching their daughter spend time in NICU with a congenital heart condition. She writes about the fear of seeing your tiny baby so unwell, the impact of medical trauma on a family, and the way an experience neither parent could have imagined changed their marriage. But most of all, this is a letter of gratitude — to the person beside you when everything feels frightening and uncertain. To the husband who became a teammate, a source of strength and an unwavering support for their children and for Katherine. Katherine is a Clinical Psychologist, writer and mum, bringing both professional insight and lived experience to her writing about medical parenting. A letter about NICU, congenital heart disease, parenthood, marriage, medical trauma and the love that carries families through difficult times.
