81: Chronic Illness, Trauma & Faith:  Not Healed, but Not Abandoned - Brent Butler’s Story

81: Chronic Illness, Trauma & Faith: Not Healed, but Not Abandoned - Brent Butler’s Story

This episode of Autoimmune Adventures is one you don’t just listen to—you feel it.

Brent Butler is a speaker, trainer, and patient advocate living with end-stage renal disease. After more than 15 major surgeries, a failed kidney transplant, and over 15 years on dialysis, Brent shares the reality of chronic illness in a way most people never hear.

In this conversation, we go beyond the surface to talk about what trauma actually looks like in dialysis patients—the emotional shutdown, the quiet withdrawal, the weight of returning to treatment after hope was lost. Brent opens up about the small daily decisions that build resilience over time, and what it means to keep showing up when everything in you wants to shut down.

We also step into something deeper—what happens when chronic illness creates a crisis of faith. Brent offers a powerful perspective:

“Chronic illness just means that Christ is chronically present.”

This episode is for patients, caregivers, and anyone who wants to better understand the human experience behind chronic illness.

You are not alone in this.
