THE FERAL TRANSLATION
Because GIST is rare, weird, and absolutely not something you should have to navigate with only Google and panic.
This directory doesn't update itself. Unfortunately.
I personally verify, organize, and maintain every resource here so you don't have to spend three hours rage-Googling while stress-eating pretzels in a hospital parking lot.
If this page saved you a few hours of rage-Googling, here are a few ways to support the chaos:
☕ Shop my caregiver-approved Amazon finds
📋 Download the free Caregiver Snapshot
❤️ Join The Hub
Every click helps me keep adding and updating resources.
