Still Here Club — Chronic Illness Humor & Resilience

Join club
A starkly honest bedside scene: a small, scuffed nightstand beside an unseen bed, topped with an organized arrangement of survival essentials. A digital alarm clock reads a brutally honest time like 3:17 AM, next to a half-full glass of water with condensation, an open pill organizer, and a thick, black hardcover journal embossed with a subtle lightning bolt. A pair of noise-cancelling headphones rests coiled like armor. The only light source is a dim, warm bedside lamp casting a tight pool of light, leaving the surrounding room in moody shadow. Photographic realism, eye-level, rule-of-thirds composition, with the journal as the visual anchor. The atmosphere feels intimate, raw, and darkly comforting, evoking late-night resilience in the midst of chronic illness insomnia.

About Us

Meet the misfits turning medical trauma into connection, dark humor, and stubborn hope.

Our Purpose

Giving Back to the Community

Still Here Club was built by someone who knows firsthand how difficult it can be to navigate life with serious health challenges.
Because of that, giving back to the disability and chronic illness community will always be a core part of this project.


As the Still Here Club continues to grow, a portion of profits will continue to be used to help support individuals and communities affected by chronic illness and disability.

Our goal is to reinvest in the people who inspire this movement by supporting things such as:
• individuals facing medical hardships
• disability advocacy efforts
• organizations supporting chronic illness communities
• initiatives that raise awareness and improve accessibility


This is just the beginning. As the community grows, so will the ways we are able to support others who are fighting their own battles.

About





Still Here, Still Laughing





Still Here Club started as late-night hospital memes and became a lifeline for people who cope with scans, scars, and scary charts using gallows humor, honesty, and solidarity. We’re not inspirational; we’re just unapologetically still here together.

A minimalist black felt letter board leaning against a matte charcoal wall, the white plastic letters spelling out a dry, darkly funny message about chronic illness survival. At the base of the board rests a small stack of medical bracelets, a folded hospital gown with faint blue patterning, and a neatly arranged row of prescription bottles turned so the labels are illegible. Soft side lighting from a warm desk lamp creates gentle shadows and a subtle halo along the letter edges. Photographic realism, shot straight-on with centered composition and shallow depth of field, leaving the outer edges slightly blurred. The mood is sardonic yet empowering, with a clean, modern, almost editorial feel suitable for a chronic illness humor brand.

A close-up of a black spiral-bound notebook open on a dark wooden desk, its crisp white page filled with bold hand-drawn doodles of medical equipment turned into sarcastic cartoon icons: an IV bag with a crown, a pill bottle wearing sunglasses, a heart monitor line morphing into a middle finger. Beside it sits a heavy ceramic “Still Here Club” stamp resting in a faint ink smudge, and a sleek metal pen. Cool, diffused window light from the left casts soft, elongated shadows and highlights the paper’s texture. Photographic realism, shot from a slightly elevated angle, with the central doodles in razor-sharp focus and the background fading into gentle blur. The mood is defiant, creative, and darkly playful, with a crisp, modern visual style.

Felicity O’Connor





Still Here Club was founded by Felicity O’Connor after surviving life-threatening medical complications that permanently changed her life.





After emergency surgeries and receiving a permanent ostomy, Felicity experienced firsthand how isolating serious illness can feel. At the same time, she discovered something powerful — people who go through these experiences often develop a unique perspective on life, resilience, and humor.





Sometimes the only response to everything life throws at you is to laugh, shake your head, and say:





“Well… I’m still here.”





Still Here Club grew from that mindset.





What started as an idea to bring humor and awareness to life with medical challenges has grown into a community for anyone who has faced something that should have taken them out — but didn’t.
