Crisis is rarely a single moment.

It is the slow unraveling. The hospital wristbands. The school meetings. The insurance denials. The nights you lie awake calculating risk and hope in equal measure.

In Fighting for Their Lives, Jenn Garofolo traces two distinct fights. The first began when her child was 2 years old, a mental health crisis that would stretch across a decade of hospitalizations and treatment placements. The second began when he came out as transgender. They are separate. They intersect. And she finds herself battling the very systems she had spent her career inside. The collision is impossible to ignore.
