Right now · about you

And how are you?

You are the one holding this together, and nobody has asked. Same deal: steps, words, no lecture.

Not the one doing the caring?

If you are a friend, a relative or a colleague, there is a page written for you: what to say, what lands badly however kindly meant, and the specific jobs that actually help. How to help a family going through HG.

You are not overreacting.

Hyperemesis gravidarum is not bad morning sickness. The HER Foundation calls it a potentially life-threatening pregnancy disease that can cause weight loss, malnutrition and dehydration. If you have been told to try ginger and wait it out, that advice was for a different illness.
