Support during a crisis or flare ups

Posing these questions to the group to see if anyone has been in a similar situation and has feedback from their own experience.

My husband and our two young daughters live three states away from all of our family. I’m newly diagnosed with Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency (December 2024), and I have recently posed the idea to my husband that we should move back to be closer to family. This idea mostly stems from my fear of going into crisis or continuing to have consistent periods of not feeling well and not having a reliable support system in place to help with our kids or my husband should I not be able to for health reasons.

My question for you all is do you/did you live away from family at diagnosis or any time after? How did you cope if you needed during extra support/childcare during a crisis but didn’t have many people to rely on? In your experience, was this a valid concern and reason to move back home?

Ive not experienced a full crisis or needed to use my emergency injection, but I have had a few pre-crisis experiences that I was able to manage with updosing.

Any insight is greatly appreciated! And I know this mostly comes down to circumstance, personal preferences, etc. I’d just like to know if anyone else has been in a similar situation and how they handled it.
