Have you ever been told the words, "It's Terminal," "We've done everything we know to do," There's nothing more we can offer" or "We're sorry to tell you..." If you have, you've probably been in the same position as so many others who have been given a diagnosis of a terminal disease or life altering genetic disorder. These words often etch into our brains the idea that there is no hope or that there is nothing else that can be done. We are not often given the hope that when all else has failed and everyone's best attempts fall short, there is still ONE who can handle anything. This is the true story of healing from Multiple Sclerosis. What you will find inside this book are the true struggles and challenges of a real family that faced their worst fears. We share this story because we believe others need to know there is hope and anything is possible. We hope this story brings faith and life to you to keep fighting the battles. You are a warrior and you're not alone!
