Show Notes
When tragedy strikes a person or a family, a normal reaction is to feel overwhelmed. Consumed by grief, sorrow, even worry. But what happens when tragedy after tragedy emerges? How can we come to a place of feeling like God isn’t punishing us? How can we handle it when God gives us more than one Cross to carry? When will this end? In this episode, Andrea interviews her friend, Denise Johnson, who shares the trials of navigating multiple medical diagnoses in her children and how she chooses to carry each cross with great faith
Our Guest
Denise Johnson has navigated the medical complexities of a daughter’s survival of terminal brain cancer, three children living with hemophilia as well as a son with epilepsy. By focusing on the peace of Christ, rather than the weight of a diagnosis, she has fostered an environment where her children lead active, service-oriented lives. Currently, Denise is developing new scriptural Rosary and Sunday Mass guides for all ages aimed at helping 21st century families connect more deeply with the mysteries of the faith.

How can a mindset be important when dealing with difficult life issues? Reflect on Denise’s experience and how she has leaned toward God in the many hurdles. How can her story be a consolation for your own story?
