WHO WE AREWe’re medical moms who have walked this journey firsthand. Our children have faced multiple diagnoses, undergone open-heart surgeries, and spent months in intensive care.
As their parents, we were suddenly immersed in a complex medical world, learning to understand diagnoses, procedures, medications, and care plans while still trying to simply be parents.
After months in the hospital, when we finally brought our children home, we quickly realized that navigating life outside the hospital came with an entirely different set of challenges. The resources, guidance and community we needed to confidently and joyfully parent our medically fragile children were often difficult to find, scattered across countless places, or simply unavailable.
Learning to navigate the healthcare system, coordinate complex care, advocate for our children, and make everyday parenting decisions—without a roadmap—was overwhelming. That’s where the Annie Louise Foundation comes in.
The Annie Louise Foundation was born from our experiences and from a desire to make the journey a little less daunting—and a lot more joyful—for other medical families.
WHAT WE BELIEVENo family should have to figure it all out alone, and the hard road can be filled with joy when we walk together.
We created a community designed to help parents find the information, tools, and support they need to confidently navigate both the medical world and the realities of parenting a medically complex child.
