Most of us take for granted what it means to get dressed in the morning.

For a child with a chronic or terminal illness, even that small act can be painful, complicated, or impossible in a standard hospital gown.

BRETS were designed for hospitalized children, so they can receive care without sacrificing comfort.

If you work in healthcare, pediatric advocacy, or simply believe in this mission, we invite you to learn more and share our work.

BRETS were designs from firsthand experience of dealing with complex care and medical devices on a continuous basis.

Help spread our mission of providing comfort during even the most difficult times.

"They wanted to know the word that best described my son. I realized that his mettle, meaning courage and strength of spirit of a soldier, was the best word that described him."

In a recent podcast, Katie Bigelow talks about Bret's story and naming Mettle Ops in his honor.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

The Bret Bigelow Foundation started with a pair of scissors and a mother's love.

A mother doing what mothers do; finding a way to bring comfort to her child, and then deciding that other children deserved that same comfort too.

A love so fierce it became a foundation.

Comfort.

It's a small word that means everything when you're a child facing a serious illness.

The mission of the Bret Bigelow Foundation is to provide exactly that; comfort, relief, and moments of genuine happiness to chronically and terminally ill children and their families during one of the most difficult journeys a family can face.

Help us keep that promise: bretbigelowfoundation.org

Every child deserves comfort, even on the hardest days.

The Bret Bigelow Foundation exists for one reason: to bring comfort, hope, and unforgettable moments to chronically and terminally ill children and their families.
