Tell Us About a Hero in Your Life

Shine a light on someone who’s helped you along the way.

We all have someone who lifted us up when we needed some support.
Maybe it’s a loved one, a nurse, someone you saw online who inspired you, maybe even yourself.

Share who inspired you and why they mattered. Your words could help someone else feel a little less alone.

No script. No pressure. Just you and your story.

Why We’re Asking This Question

In healthcare, it’s often the small acts of kindness that leave the biggest marks on our hearts. Whether it’s a doctor who listened a little longer, a nurse who offered comfort in a scary moment, a family member who stood strong beside you, or even a stranger who shared their story, these heroes help shape the experience of healing.

At The Patient Story, we believe every voice matters—and so do the voices that lift us up along the way. In this video request, we are asking you to share who made a difference in your healthcare journey. Your heroes could be anyone: a caregiver, a fellow patient, a community advocate, or even you yourself.

By celebrating these moments of inspiration, we help others see the power of connection, compassion, and encouragement. These videos honor those whose words, actions, or simply their presence made your healthcare experience feel more human.

Your story could inspire someone who is facing a new diagnosis, navigating treatment, or simply needing a reminder that good people exist.

Who made you feel seen, supported, or stronger?
