A lighthouse battles the elements, its faltering light symbolizing a caregiver's struggle with trauma and PTSD. As it weathers the storm, the lighthouse reflects on past tragedies and shipwrecks. This metaphor explores the weight of caregiving, the relentless nature of trauma, and the importance of seeking help and support. In the end, with proper care and maintenance, the lighthouse stands tall, ready to shine again. Special thanks to Donna Thomson for her contribution to this episode.
