This is Have The Nerve Shorts - the short episodes between the long ones where we talk about things From The Internet, you can Get To Know Your Body and there might be even Something To Think About.On this episode of Have The Nerve, Forrest Campbell comes on to talk about his observations about the lack of peer support for his wife when he sustained his spinal cord injury in 2015. He talks about how the difficulty of transitioning to a new life wasn't just felt for him, but became very real for her as well, and when they looked for genuine support it was sorely lacking.According to Carers Australia there are currently 2.65 million unpaid carers in Australia who provide 2.2 billion hours of unpaid care per year.Note: In the episode Forrest mentions that his wife is working on a peer support website for carers to access. We will update you on the progress.
