About this listen

In this heartfelt episode of Real Lives of TBI Wives, host Erika Brouillette welcomes guest Brittiny Buckenberger, who opens up about her husband’s surgically induced traumatic brain injury (TBI) following the removal of a brain tumor. What began as a life-saving procedure quickly became the start of a life-changing caregiving journey.

Brittiny vulnerably shares the cognitive and emotional challenges her husband now faces, the mental toll of endless medical appointments and therapies, and the impact TBI has had on their marriage, routines, and communication. With grace and honesty, she offers encouragement to other TBI wives, emphasizing the vital role of support systems, patience, and protecting your own mental and emotional health.

This episode is a compassionate guide for navigating TBI after surgery, and a powerful reminder that caregiving is an act of fierce love.
