The ICU is terrifying. The medical jargon makes it worse.

Your loved one is in the ICU. Machines are beeping. Doctors use words you've never heard. You smile and nod because you don't want to look stupid. But inside, you're drowning in confusion and fear.

😰

Information Overwhelm

Doctors give updates using medical terminology that's impossible to process when you're terrified.

"Most people become anxious when they feel overwhelmed or unsure"
🤐

Afraid to Ask

You don't want to waste the doctor's time. You don't even know what questions to ask.

"We encourage you to write down your questions so that you remember them"
📱

Google Makes It Worse

You search the terms and find worst-case scenarios. Nothing is specific to your loved one's case.
