How T-Rex Little Lungs Helps
-
Peer Support
Our peer support program connects families of babies with BPD or trachs to others who’ve lived this journey. By sharing experiences, advice, and encouragement, parents find both practical guidance and the comfort of knowing they’re not alone. Whether through one-on-one connections or small group support, our goal is to help families feel understood and supported.
-
Urgent Travel Needs
When families of medically fragile babies are rushed out of state for critical care, there’s often no time to pack. We supply urgent travel kits directly to hospitals, ensuring parents have toiletries, comfort items, and essentials ready when they need them most
-
Out of Pocket Costs
Caring for a child with BPD or a tracheostomy often comes with expenses insurance doesn’t cover. We help families with essentials like stroller wagons for safe transport, emergency go-bags for medical equipment, and other critical items that ease daily life and emergencies.
-
Going Home
Bringing a medically complex child home is overwhelming. We support families with peer-to-peer tips, help organizing medical supplies, needed household items, and resource lists tailored to both urban and rural settings—so every child can come home safely.
-
BPD/Trach Awareness
Through education and advocacy, we shine a light on BPD and tracheostomy care—helping families share their stories, connecting with providers, and increasing community understanding of these rare but life-changing diagnoses
-
Family Enrichment
Family enrichment means looking at the bigger picture. From easing financial burdens to providing encouragement and tools for daily life, we help families not just survive, but thrive through the challenges of BPD and trach care.
