When the Conditions Start With H: The Heaviness We Learn to Hold

These conditions don’t always arrive with noise. But once they’re here, everything gets heavier.

“H” brings grief that’s physical and psychological—high blood pressure you can’t feel until it’s urgent. Hormonal shifts that erase who you thought you were. Hereditary grief that starts before you’re even sick.

This page is for those who carry the hidden weight.
For those whose pain doesn’t always show.
And for those who hold hands with someone slowly fading.

"See It. Name It. Stand Against It."
