About this listen
In this episode of Hope for the Caregiver, I sit down with Lindsay Funches, a mother who has spent nearly two decades navigating life with a medically complex child. Her son, Steele, was born during a military deployment and later diagnosed with Crouzon syndrome, a rare craniofacial condition that has required dozens of surgeries, long hospital stays, and constant vigilance.
We talk about what it's like to push back when doctors don't listen, to raise siblings alongside illness, and to keep a marriage and faith steady through
deployments, uncertainty, and exhaustion. Lindsay reflects on learning when to advocate, when to wait, and how a life shaped by caregiving can deepen joy rather than erase it.
This conversation moves through real moments: kitchen-table decisions, ICU nights, humor in hospital rooms, and the slow realization that "normal" may never return, but meaning still can. It's a candid discussion about caregiving, special needs parenting, military family life, and the faith that sustains people when answers don't come easily.
