I hope those kidneys are living their best lives with the kids they went home to😂

Send this to the parent who would risk it all to avoid coming home empty-handed.

Mrinal knew she felt different when she was 7.

It took years before she had the language to understand why.

I really loved this reminder from her story: you never know how much effort someone may be putting in just to move through the world.

There can be a whole lot happening underneath that you can’t see.

Thank you, Mrinal, for letting us share a little piece of your story. 💛

Eight years ago, I was a med student who wrote a little children’s book about the human body and then learned ...putting something online is not a marketing plan. 😂

Hardly anyone saw it, but the little organ characters from that book ended up becoming our very first Nerdbugs plushies. Eventually those characters became the designs for the very first nerdbugs plushies .

Years later, I finally I came back to the book, rewrote it, added more organs, added more puns, and somehow eight years later, Head to Toe-tally Awesome is finally out in the world. 🥹

I really hope you check it out, and if you do, I’d love to hear what you think. 💛

Every September, our little livers head to Texas. 💜

The Texas Liver Foundation includes them in Bravery Bags for kids living with liver disease, giving them a way to understand what’s happening to their body in a way that feels a little less scary.

We’re so grateful to Jenifer + the Texas Liver Foundation for letting us be part of it.

We always want to find more ways to help families in the hospital, so if there’s an organization that made a difference for you, we’d love to meet them… drop their name below. 💜

who would've guessed a stuffed spine to be the thing that got someone through dry needling? 😅

well, 100,000+ people, apparently. that's how many nerdbugs are out there being squeezed in waiting rooms, exam chairs, and pre-op beds right now. 🤗

which one would you want in your hand during a hard appointment? 👇

Ashlyn is 15, and she lost a year of school, sports, friends, and family gatherings to endometriosis pain.
and in the endo world, that makes her one of the lucky ones, because it takes most women seven to ten years to be believed.

she got twelve months. that's the good outcome. sit with that one.
