When 17-year-old Brayden Baer suffered a life-threatening traumatic brain injury in a devastating car crash, his family was suddenly faced with unimaginable uncertainty. Braden and his mother, Elaine Baer, are joined by Dr. Amber Grana, a Pediatric ICU intensivist, and Mary Grace Dunham, a PICU charge nurse at Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital, to share the story of his remarkable recovery and the compassionate care that guided them through it. Together, they reflect on the difficult balance of honest conversations, unwavering hope, and the resilience that carried them forward one day at a time. It's an inspiring conversation about survival, healing, and the people who make extraordinary recoveries possible.
